Twins 3B Royce Lewis sidelined with hamstring strain

royce lewis twins

Minnesota Twins third baseman Royce Lewis will miss Opening Day with a moderate left hamstring strain, the team announced Monday.

The Twins did not provide a timetable for his return, but a stint on the injured list seems probable due to the typical recovery period.

Lewis, 25, sustained the injury during Sunday’s Grapefruit League game against the Boston Red Sox. He is batting .346 (9-for-26) this spring with three RBIs and a stolen base.

Lewis batted .233 with 16 home runs and 47 RBIs in 82 games last season, when he missed more than two months with a quadriceps injury sustained on Opening Day.

The No. 1 overall pick of the 2017 MLB draft is a career .268 hitter with 33 homers and 104 RBIs in 152 games.

His development has been slowed by a variety of injuries, including ACL surgery on his right knee in both 2021 and 2022.
