Twins 3B Plouffe enters season with Sano waiting for chance | |
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) Trevor Plouffe is coming off of a season in which he led the Minnesota Twins in RBIs and signed a $4.8 million, one-year contract that made him the highest-paid third baseman in franchise history. Put those two things together and the 28-year-old Plouffe would appear to be on firm footing heading into his sixth season in the big leagues. But with star prospect Miguel Sano recovered from an elbow injury that cost him most of last season, the future is anything but certain for Plouffe. "I'm in it to win, man. I want to win the AL Central," Plouffe said as the Twins opened their annual fan festival. MORE | |
