Dispatched to St. Paul The Twins optioned Roden to Triple-A St. Paul on Friday.

Fades into reserve role Roden is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

Impact Though he produced a three-hit effort in his most recent start during Wednesday's win over the Orioles, Roden has unsurprisingly been the odd man out of the lineup following Byron Buxton's return from the injured list Thursday. Roden will hit the bench for a third straight game while the Twins go with Trevor Larnach, Buxton and Luke Keaschall as their starting outfield trio from left to right.

Exits lineup with lefty starting Roden is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Orioles.

Impact The left-handed-hitting Roden will hit the bench for the third time in four games, with each of his absences coming against left-handed starting pitchers. Roden has gone just 7-for-41 (.171 average) versus righties this season, but he could nonetheless be in store for a strong-side platoon role in the Minnesota outfield while Byron Buxton (hip) remains on the injured list.

Back in starting nine Wednesday Roden will start in right field and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Royals.

Impact Since Byron Buxton returned from the injured list July 20, Roden's playing time has been trending down, as the 26-year-old started in just two of the Twins' previous seven games. However, with Buxton aggravating a hip injury Tuesday and taking a seat Wednesday, the Twins will have a spot in the lineup available to Roden, who has produced a .488 OPS over 39 plate appearances in the big leagues this season.

Garnering look in everyday role Roden will start in right field and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Angels.

Impact Roden was left out of the lineup for Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Guardians after being called up from Triple-A St. Paul that day, but he's picked up starts in each of the Twins' ensuing five games. He's thus far gone 3-for-11 with two walks and three RBI while slotting between the sixth and eighth spots in the lineup. Roden should get the chance to play regularly against right-handed pitching while Byron Buxton (hip) is on the shelf.

Impact Roden barreled a walk-off single off the wall in center-field in his season debut for the Twins.

The lefty hit well in the minors this season, slashing .272/.397/.512 with eight home runs and a 24:25 BB:K in 33 games with St. Paul.
