The Twins didn't have Byron Buxton, Carlos Correa or Royce Lewis in their starting lineup on Sunday. They overcame a six-run deficit to win 7-6 at Kansas City, putting them on pace to win 99 games and enrage 1 million fans.
Roughly a quarter of the way through the 2022 season, the Twins will start a homestand on Monday against Detroit at Target Field, and it seems that a large number of vocal fans will care more about the posted lineup than the final boxscore.
They want to see Buxton and Lewis in the lineup every day. Which is understandable. They are the two most spectacular athletes in the organization.
