It’s been a roller coaster ride for Minnesota Twins slugger Kennys Vargas. Terry Ryan never fully committed to the idea that Vargas could last at the MLB level playing first base or even designated.
He’s always been an enigma still up until this point. But, on the April 24, Vargas got his first call-up with the new guard and he’s been everything Twins fans have hoped for, a power presence behind Miguel Sano in the lineup. Like many others, it’s been a small sample size but an effective one as well.
Maybe you remember the giant shadow cast behind the batters box in the Future’s Game at Target Field a handful of years ago.
