Royce Lewis Headed for Injured List
Minnesota Twins third baseman Royce Lewis (knee) is heading to the 10-day injured list with a left-knee sprain, according to Twins sideline reporter Audra Martin. Lewis just cannot stay away from the injury bug. The 26-year-old injured his knee on Thursday, was held out of Friday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays, and will now go on the IL on Saturday. The former first overall pick in 2017 can get hot with the best of them and has game-changing power from the third base position, but he's only played in over 100 games just once in his four MLB seasons (last year) due to various injuries. Given Lewis' lengthy injury history, fantasy managers should not be preparing for him to return anytime soon. In his first 12 games in 2026, he had gone 8-for-36 (.222) with two home runs, eight RBI, six runs, and two stolen bases in 45 plate appearances. Tristan Gray made the start at the hot corner in Minnesota on Friday and will now see his fantasy value in AL-only leagues get a nice boost with Lewis out for an undetermined amount of time.
