Robbie Grossman has the hottest bat on the Minnesota Twins right now.

Robbie Grossman has been a very pleasant surprise thus far for the Minnesota Twins. From the designated hitter position, Grossman has the best batting average and best slash line on the Twins thus far.

The 27 year-old designated hitter has a slash line of .288/.448/.423. He is leading the Twins in both batting average and on-base percentage.

Along with a strong average, Robbie Grossman has one home-run, 4 doubles and 8 RBI’s.

The Minnesota Twins had a lot of questions heading into the 2017 campaign after a 100+ loss season a year ago. Robbie Grossman has helped them to answer one of them, the DH question.

He has been a solid contributor with the bat in his hands, and the Twins can only hope it continues. With all the inconsistency the Twins have had from an offensive perspective, Grossman has helped them in being one of the lone bright spots.
