Buxton’s Hip Trouble & Ryan’s Progress | MLB News

Byron Buxton’s hip woes persist as he exited Tuesday’s game chasing a ball, with the Twins holding off on roster moves for now—planning to monitor his condition over the next couple days. Manager Derek Shelton confirmed Buxton is sore, noting the difficulty of stopping and decelerating with the injury, though it’s unclear if the discomfort came from the chase or the stop—or both. If sidelined, top prospect Walker Jenkins, who’s crushing it in Triple-A center field, could step in. Meanwhile, pitcher Joe Ryan is inching back from his glute injury, throwing live BP yesterday and set for a rehab start soon. And in draft news, second-rounder Vahn Lackey continues his hot streak, hitting two homers in as many games at High-A while showing elite power, speed, and a strong walk-to-strikeout ratio.
