The Minnesota Twins have had the privilege of writing into the lineup for the past 15 seasons someone who is truly a generational talent in Joe Mauer. As we wonder just how much longer Mauer will play baseball as he completes the last season of his eight-year contract, he continues to make his way up all-time leaderboards. Most recently, Thursday night Mauer tied Rod Carew for second most hits in a Twins uniform at 2,085.
That 2,085 hits now puts Mauer only behind Kirby Puckett‘s 2,304 hits in Twins history.
