Minnesota Twins: Stop starting Robbie Grossman in the outfield

The Minnesota Twins dropped to 10-17 Thursday night after losing on a walk-off home run to the Chicago White Sox. In that stretch manager Paul Molitor has continued to do one thing with his lineup that is simply mind boggling. Start Robbie Grossman in right field.

Last season Grossman was a valuable cog to the Twins offense. His .361 OBP made it worth including him in the lineup regularly. This season in 23 games, Grossman hasn’t been able to provide much of anything offensively as he is slashing .185/.247/.308 and has 6 walks to 17 strikeouts.
