Berrios, Rosario, Vargas monitoring hurricane

NEW YORK -- With Hurricane Maria making landfall in Puerto Rico, Twins players Jose Berrios, Eddie Rosario and Kennys Vargas have been monitoring the situation from Yankee Stadium.

The hurricane is expected to cause widespread damage to the island, and all three players are native Puerto Ricans who represented their country in the World Baseball Classic. Berrios hails from Bayamon near San Juan, Rosario is from Guayama on the southern coast and Vargas is from Canovanas on the northeast side of the island.

"[Berrios], Kennys and Rosie are all dealing with another bout of anxiety related to their homeland," Twins manager Paul Molitor said.
