In a recent game, their two players, Carlos Correa and Byron Buxton collided and had to miss the first game of the series against the Milwaukee Brewers. On Friday, the Twins decided to place Carlos Correa on the 7-day concussion list, which means he will miss at least a week. Another injury hit the team when third baseman Willi Castro hurt his knee in the first inning. He hit a foul ball into his own knee and had to leave the game, even though he tried to stay in. Now, while managing the current line up, Kody Clemens had to move to left field.
