Max Kepler, Marwin Gonzalez, Luis Arraez On ALDS Roster
5 years agoMinnesota Twins outfielder Max Kepler (shoulder), utility man Marwin Gonzalez (oblique), second baseman Luis Arraez (ankle) and infielder Ehire Adrianza (oblique) are all on the roster for the American League Division Series against the Yankees, which starts Friday. Kepler is the biggest name among this group after slugging 36 home runs, scoring 98 runs and driving in 90 runs in 524 at-bats. However, he hasn't played since Sept. 21 and will be facing lefty James Paxton if he's in the lineup. Surprisingly, Kepler actually hit better against lefties (.293) than against righties (.236) in 2019. But he hit just nine of his 36 homers against southpaws. Kepler is a DFS fade if he plays.
