Byron Buxton Sits Out on Monday
5 years agoMinnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (wrist) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Boston Red Sox. Buxton was hit by a pitch on Friday and has not played in a game since then. It does sound like he's able to play as a defensive replacement, but wouldn't bat. Max Kepler will bat leadoff and play center field versus righty Rick Porcello. Kepler has been hot with the bat, so he's a strong candidate for DFS contests.
