Hitless in his past 15 at-bats, Joe Mauer is struggling through his biggest slump of the season, with his major league-leading average down to .350.
But after two perplexing losses to the Kansas City Royals, the Twins would place Mauer low on their list of biggest concerns.
Injuries continued to mount Wednesday, the offense continued to sputter, and the Twins lost more precious ground in the standings with a 4-3 loss at the Metrodome.
After surging to the wild-card lead last weekend in Chicago, the Twins have fallen 1 1/2 games behind the White Sox and six games behind Detroit in the AL Central.
