Lands on IL with hamstring strain The Twins placed Martin (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list Monday.

Impact The severity of the left hamstring strain Martin sustained during Sunday's 7-5 loss to the Phillies isn't yet known, but the 27-year-old will be out of commission for at least the next week and a half. Minnesota called up catcher Alex Jackson from Triple-A St. Paul to take Martin's spot on the 26-man active roster. Martin has mainly handled a short-side platoon role in the Minnesota outfield this season, slashing .241/.352/.333 with three home runs, 12 stolen bases, 41 runs and 23 RBI across 335 plate appearances.

Strains hamstring Sunday Twins manager Derek Shelton said that Martin sustained a left hamstring strain in the eighth inning of Sunday's 7-5 loss to the Phillies and will be sent in for an MRI, Aaron Gleem...

Impact Martin didn't start but entered Sunday's contest in the top of the eighth as a defensive replacement in left field for Trevor Larnach. With one out in the frame, Martin appeared to pull up lame while pursuing a Luis Arraez line drive down the left-field line, prompting the Twins to pull him from the game immediately. Shelton said the MRI will clarify the severity of Martin's hamstring strain, but even a mild injury could be enough to send the outfielder to the injured list.

Twins play the Orioles after Martin's 4-hit game

The Minnesota Twins take on the Baltimore Orioles after Austin Martin had four hits against the Orioles on Monday

AUGUST 11 • Associated Press

Stuffs stat sheet in win Martin went 4-for-5 with a home run, a double, a stolen base and two additional runs scored in Monday's 9-5 win over the Orioles.

Impact Martin was a thorn in the side of Baltimore pitching out of the leadoff spot, showing off both power and speed Monday. It was his first four-hit attack of the campaign as well as the first time he's homered and swiped a bag in a game this season. Martin has an .809 OPS in 120 at-bats versus left-handed pitchers as opposed to a .587 OPS over 157 at-bats against right-handers, and his lack of success against righties should continue to inhibit his fantasy upside.

Martin goes 4 for 5, including a home run in the Twins' 9-5 win over the Orioles

Handling leadoff role Monday Martin will start in left field and bat leadoff in Monday's game against the Orioles.

Impact Martin has now made seven of his last eight starts out of the leadoff spot, as the Twins continue to deploy him as their table setter versus left-handed starting pitchers. The 27-year-old has produced an impressive 124 wRC+ in 150 plate appearances versus lefties, but his struggles against right-handed pitching (.224/.303/.276 slash line, 67 wRC+ over 175 plate appearances) will hinder his efforts to break out of a short-side platoon role.
