On base three times in loss Julien went 2-for-4 with a walk, a run scored and a stolen base in Saturday's 10-8 loss to the Blue Jays.

Impact The 25-year-old Canadian put together a solid performance in Toronto as the Twins' leadoff hitter. The multi-hit performance was Julien's first since April 27, snapping a slump that had seen him hit just .097 (3-for-31) over the prior 12 games, while the steal was his fourth of the season, establishing a new career high after he swiped three in 109 games last year as a rookie.

On bench versus lefty Julien is not in the Twins' lineup for Thursday's opener in Kansas City.

Impact It doesn't sound like a serious injury, but Julien may be sidelined a few days during spring traning as a result. Julien is having a strong spring by hitting .421 (8-for-19) with two home runs. He had an outstanding rookie season with a .381 OBP and drew walks at a near league-leading 15.7 percent clip. However, he hit just .195 with a .447 OPS against left-handed pitching. Julien will become the primary starter at second base after the trade of Jorge Polanco but will likely be platooned with Kyle Farmer.

Productive against Rockies Julien went 3-for-5 with one double, a two-run home run, an additional RBI and an additional run scored in Saturday's victory over the Rockies.

Impact Julien fell one triple shy of the cycle Saturday, notching a single in the first inning, a double in the sixth and belting a two-run homer in the seventh. He's now up to 16 homers on the year -- two in his last three games -- while slashing .263/.381/.461 across 108 contests.

Gets breather Friday Julien is not in the lineup Friday against the Rockies.

Impact This looks to be a planned day of rest for Julien, who boasts an .825 OPS with 15 homers and three steals through his first 107 major-league games. Christian Vazquez will serve as the Twins' designated hitter Friday at Colorado. Donovan Solano is batting leadoff.

Belts 15th homer Julien went 2-for-4 with a solo home run against the A's in Wednesday's 6-4 victory.

Impact Julien began the Twins' half of the first inning with a bang, smacking a solo shot to right field. The long ball snapped an 0-for-11 stretch over his past four games and was his first extra-base hit since Sept. 17. Though he's somewhat faded down the stretch, Julien has still produced a solid .262/.380/.452 slash line with 15 homers, 33 RBI, 58 runs and three stolen bases through 393 plate appearances in his first season in the majors.

Like Lewis, Julien is up to 13 homers on the campaign, and he's gone deep twice in his past three contests. Overall, Julien is slashing a solid .270/.382/.460 with 27 RBI, 51 runs and three thefts across 347 appearances in what has been a strong first big-league season.

SEPTEMBER 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sits against southpaw Julien will hit the bench Saturday against the Mets.

Impact Julien has only started five games against a southpaw all season, so it's no surprise to see him on the bench here against David Peterson. While he's crushed righties to the tune of an .885 OPS, his .452 OPS in a tiny sample of 42 plate appearances against lefties means he's unlikely to advance beyond a platoon role any time soon. Kyle Farmer enters the lineup in his absence, starting at third base while Royce Lewis rests his legs in Julien's usual designated hitter spot.

SEPTEMBER 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Scores three times in blowout Julien went 0-for-3 with three walks and three runs in Monday's 20-6 win over the Guardians.

Impact Though he was one of only two Twins starters who failed to record a hit in the blowout victory, Julien still got the job done atop the order thanks to his patient eye at the plate. Since returning to the lineup Aug. 16 following a brief absence due to a hamstring injury, Julien is getting on base at a .377 clip and is batting .275, despite striking out at a 36.1 percent clip.

SEPTEMBER 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

AUGUST 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Belts three-run shot Julien went 1-for-5 with a three-run homer, a walk and two runs scored in Friday's win over Texas.

Impact Julien drilled a three-run shot during Minnesota's six-run seventh frame but also struck out four times. It was his 11th homer of the year and first since July 26. Over his previous 22 games since that last home run, Julien posted a .621 OPS with just four RBI. The rookie infielder is now slashing .285/.378/.479 with 24 extra-base hits and 41 runs scored through 78 games.

Sitting against southpaw Julien isn't in the Twins' lineup for Thursday's game against Texas, John Shipley of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Impact Southpaw Andrew Heaney will start on the mound for the Rangers, meaning the left-handed bat of Julien will stay put in the Twins' dugout to begin the game. Kyle Farmer will take over at second base and bat seventh.

Back in action Wednesday Julien (hamstring) will start at second base and bat leadoff in Wednesday's game against the Tigers.

Impact Julien sat out Tuesday's 5-3 win due to the hamstring injury, but the day off was apparently all he needed to move past the issue. He'll settle back in as the Twins' table setter in the series finale after previously batting ninth in his most recent start Sunday against the Phillies.

AUGUST 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with hamstring injury Julien is not in Tuesday's lineup due to a hamstring issue, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

Impact Julien is mired in a 1-for-16 slump, so manager Rocco Baldelli may just be looking to provide an extra day of rest as well. Jorge Polanco will shift to the keystone while Royce Lewis starts at third base.
