The Minnesota Twins wrapped up an excellent season in 2019 with most of the hitters on the roster posting career best numbers. Designated hitter Nelson Cruz is one of those players. Cruz lit up the MLB with some of his best numbers ever:

  • .311 BA/.392 OBP/1.031 OPS, 41 HR, 108 RBI, Silver Slugger Award
