Right-hander Bryson Cole Sands has pitched for the Twins at various times in 2022-2023.  Born and raised in Tallahassee, Florida, he attended Florida State University and was drafted by Minnesota in the fifth round in 2018.  His college record is not all that impressive:  19-15, 4.73, 1.32 WHIP, although he did strike out 210 in 228.1 innings.  He had a fine year in 2019 split between low-A and high-A.  He did not pitch in the COVID year of 2020, but came back to have a fine year in AA in 2021, posting an ERA of 3.02 and a WHIP of 1.17.   He struggled both at AAA and in sporadic appearances in the majors in 2022, posting an ERA over five at both levels.  He has pitched much better in AAA in 2023, but has yet to translate that to major league success.  He also missed a month in 2023 due to injury.  So far in the majors he's 0-3, 5.61, 1.64 WHIP with 41 strikeouts in 43,1 innings (19 games).  He turns twenty-six today.  The improved results at AAA give reason for hope, but he's going to have to show something at the major league level fairly soon if he's going to have a substantial career.
