Lewis was selected first overall in the 2017 MLB Draft.
The Twins are sending down third baseman Royce Lewis, per The Athletic’s Dan Hayes . Lewis has been struggling at the plate, and Minnesota is hoping he can reset in Triple-A. This is the second move the Twins have made in the last week to try to help a struggling player get right in the minors.
Minnesota opted to send down outfielder Matt Wallner . A corresponding call-up has not yet been announced by the team. This story will be updated.
