Twins Share Concerning Carlos Correa Injury Update

The Minnesota Twins have played well up to this point.

They hold a record of 15-11 and lead the American League Central division.

However, they’ve had some bad luck with injuries.

Miguel Sano is already out with a torn meniscus, but it appears that the injury bug has claimed yet another star in the Twins’ lineup.

Carlos Correa, who was hit by two pitches in the Twins’ 5-3 loss to the Baltimore Orioles, was forced to exit the game.

Following the game, Twins reporter Do-Hyoung Park provided an update on the Twins’ new shortstop and made somewhat of a grim prediction for what’s next.

The #MNTwins say that preliminary X-ray imaging on Carlos Correa's right middle finger in Baltimore revealed the "potential for a non-displaced fracture."

They're aiming to confirm with a CT scan tomorrow.

Injuries Mounting For The Twins

Again, they’ve already lost Sano for some time with a torn meniscus.

The last thing they need is to lose their star shortstop.

As Park notes, depending on the severity of the injury, Correa could have a broken finger.

It seems as though the Twins are thinking it’s a non-displaced fracture, which would not require surgery like a broken finger would.

However, it still means that Correa could be out for a decent amount of time, which could potentially open the door for a team like the Chicago White Sox to get hot and take back the top spot in the AL Central.

It’s been a tough go of things lately for the Twins, and they could start slipping in the standings soon as a result of their luck with injuries.

Correa will have a CT scan today to determine the severity of the injury and next steps.

Again, there’s a good chance he could avoid surgery if it’s simply a non-displaced fracture.

The Twins will have more clarity after the CT scans.
