Max Kepler (toe) kept out of Minnesota lineup Tuesday

Minnesota Twins outfielder Max Kepler (toe) is not in the starting lineup on Tuesday against left-hander Ethan Small and the Milwaukee Brewers.

What It Means:

Kepler was hit in the toe by a pitch during Sunday's game, but Tuesday's absence might be due to the Twins facing a lefty pitcher. Alex Kirilloff will shift to right field while Kyle Garlick starts in left and covers the cleanup spot.

Garlick is currently numberFire's second-best point-per-dollar value among hitters on Tuesday. He has a $2,100 salary and our models project him for 13.6 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Twins’ implied total (4.68) is the eighth-highest in the majors.
