6 years agoMinnesota Twins catcher Willians Astudillo went 1-for-5 with a double in a 5-3 loss to the Detroit Tigers on Sunday. Astudillo was just activated from the injured list earlier in the day and immediately drew the start, batting leadoff and playing catcher. Astudillo has been productive in limited playing time this season, hitting .327 with two homers, 11 runs, and seven RBI. His return to action could put a dent in Mitch Garver's playing time as the two were forming a three-way committee with Jason Castro when everyone was healthy. Garver has been red hot at the plate lately.--Matt T - RotoBaller
