Keaschall Moves to Outfield
from Sports News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Luke Keaschall’s rookie season is hitting rough patches—sluggish stats, fading power, and shaky defense at second base have prompted the Twins to make a bold move: shifting him to right field for his first start there, with Kody Clemens stepping in at short. Despite a promising debut last year, Keaschall’s .249 average, two homers, and 24 RBIs in 76 games aren’t cutting it. Statcast confirms his defensive struggles, making him a liability up the middle. But his speed? That’s a weapon they’re hoping to unleash in the outfield. It’s a low-risk experiment, inspired by past successes like Tatis Jr. and Cruz, and could unlock a more valuable version of Keaschall while giving the Twins more flexibility.
