12 months agoMinnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa (heel) is not in the team's starting lineup on Wednesday against the San Francisco Giants. Correa was scratched from Tuesday's lineup due to inflammation in his bruised left heel, and he'll sit out the matinee game as a precaution. It's not a serious injury for Correa, but the Twins will play it safe and he could miss another game this week. The good news is the Twins have a day off on Thursday, so hopefully he'll be back in there to start a series against the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday. In Correa's absence, Kyle Farmer will get another start at the 6 and hit fifth in the lineup against Giants right-hander Anthony DeSclafani on Wednesday. Correa has struggled at the plate in 2023 to the tune of a .213 average (36-for-169) with 11 doubles, a triple, six homers and 24 RBI in 44 games.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
