With options limited, Vargas playing for future

FORT MYERS, Fla. -- While the addition of Logan Morrison should boost an already strong Twins lineup, it leaves the future of Kennys Vargas up in the air.

Vargas came into Spring Training with a strong shot to make the roster and split time at designated hitter with Robbie Grossman, while serving as Joe Mauer's backup at first base. But Morrison is now slated to be the club's everyday DH and the backup to Mauer, which means Vargas is expected to be the odd man out as the end of camp nears.
