Sits Tuesday
Simmons is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Red Sox.
Impact
After going 4-for-18 with a double while starting in each of the Twins' last six games, Simmons will cede shortstop duties to Jorge Polanco in the series opener in Boston. In addition to his usually elite defense taking a step back in 2021 (-1.0 UZR), Simmons has been one of the majors' least productive everyday players at the plate this season. His 57 wRC+ is the third-worst mark among all players who have logged at least 300 plate appearances.
