The Minnesota Twins may be feeling a little down after dropping three-of-four games to the Cleveland Indians over the weekend, but they were able to get some good news on Monday. According to Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com, Twins designated hitter Nelson Cruz will not need surgery on his ruptured wrist tendon after seeing a specialist in New York over the weekend.
Cruz injured his wrist in the Aug. 8 game against the Indians when he felt pain in his wrist after taking a swing against Mike Clevinger. After being checked by trainers, Cruz had to leave the game immediately and was later diagnosed with a sprained left wrist, which later turned into a ruptured tendon and his second stint on the injured list this season.
