INJURIES

Sits in series opener Wallner is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Tigers, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.
Impact Wallner will be joined on the bench by fellow left-handed hitters Joey Gallo and Edouard Julien as the Tigers bring southpaw Joey Wentz to the hill for the series opener. Jordan Luplow will pick up the start in left field in place of Wallner, who appears on track to hold down a strong-side platoon role at least until the Twins get Alex Kirilloff (shoulder) back from the injured list.

Provides game winning hit Wallner went 1-for-4 with a walk-off two-run homer to beat the Diamondbacks on Sunday.
Impact Wallner delivered his first-career walk-off hit with a two-run blast off Paul Sewald to complete the series sweep for the Twins. Wallner has six homers and 12 RBI over his last 11 games. The 25-year-old has a .305 ISO in 97 plate appearances this season which would be ranked third in all of baseball if he had enough plate appearances to qualify. Wallner is locked into an everyday role after the recent injury news to Byron Buxton and would seem to have a leg up on the struggling Joey Gallo even when Buxton returns.

Collects three hits in rout Wallner went 3-for-5 with a double, two runs and two RBI against the Diamondbacks in Saturday's 12-1 victory.
Impact Wallner enjoyed his sixth multi-hit game of the campaign and his first since he belted two homers against Seattle on July 26. Five of his past six hits (covering a nine-game span) had left the park coming into Saturday, but the 25-year-old was able to be productive without going deep against Arizona. Wallner pushed his season slash line to a strong .269/.387/.551 through 93 plate appearances on the campaign, and he's tallied six homers, four doubles, 14 RBI, 15 runs and a theft thus far.
AUGUST 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Produces all three runs in loss Wallner went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run and a walk in a loss to the Cardinals on Wednesday.
Impact Minnesota fell behind big early and was never really competitive in the contest, but Wallner continued to shine with his three-run, 431-foot blast in the seventh inning. The long ball was his fifth in his past seven games, a span during which all six of his hits (the five homers and one double) have gone for extra bases. Wallner has also struck out 10 times over 25 at-bats during that stretch, so he's the epitome of all-or-nothing at the moment.

Showcases power in loss Wallner went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's loss to the Royals.
Impact Wallner was the only lefty in the Twins' lineup facing left-hander Ryan Yarbrough and was the only hitter to do any damage. He's managed to hit five home runs over his last five games and seems to have a path to a near-everyday role after Alex Kirilloff went on the injured list with a right shoulder strain Sunday. Wallner's slashing a respectable .258/.378/.532 with nine RBI, 11 runs and a 7:21 BB:K in 74 plate appearances this season.
JULY 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Seeing steady playing time Wallner will start in right field and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Royals.
Impact The lefty-hitting Wallner will descend to the bottom of the order with southpaw Ryan Yarbrough on the bump for Kansas City, but the fact that he's included in the lineup at all is a sign that he's gained the trust of the Twins' coaching staff. Since his call-up from Triple-A St. Paul on July 15, Wallner has turned what was expected to be a short-term stint in the big leagues into a near-everyday role. Though he's hitting just .200 with a 34.8 percent strikeout rate since his promotion, he's walked at a serviceable 8.7 percent clip and has made his eight hits count. Four of those eight hits have gone for extra bases, including three home runs.
JULY 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Homers twice Wednesday Wallner went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs in Wednesday's loss against the Mariners.
Impact Wallner is up to four homers this season, three of which have come in the last two days. The 25-year-old outfielder has started nine straight games as injuries continue to mount for the Twins, going 8-for-31 (.258) over that span. Overall, Wallner is slashing an impressive .294/.419/.569 with eight RBI and nine runs scored through 62 plate appearances this season. Given his current role and power upside, Wallner is worth a look in deeper fantasy leagues.
JULY 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Clubs second home run Wallner went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's loss against the Mariners.
Impact Wallner plated Max Kepler with a two-run homer off George Kirby in the first inning, marking the 25-year-old's second long ball of the campaign. However, he struck out in all three of his other at-bats for his second straight contest being punched out at least three times. Through 20 games, Wallner is slashing .277/.414/.447 with six RBI and seven runs scored while striking out at a 27.6 percent clip.
JULY 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Draws sixth straight start Wallner will start in left field and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the White Sox.
Impact Wallner will be making his sixth consecutive start after going 3-for-17 with two walks and two runs over his last five contests. His last four starts have come as a corner outfielder, but Wallner will presumably move to a bench role once Joey Gallo overcomes his bout with conjunctivitis.

José Miranda put on injured list by Twins, who recall Matt Wallner from Triple-A

Third baseman José Miranda was put on the 10-day injured list by the Minnesota Twins because of a right shoulder impingement and top prospect Matt Wallner was recalled from Triple-...
JULY 15, 2023 • Associated Press
Recalled by Twins Wallner was called up by the Twins on Saturday.
Impact Wallner is up to replace Jose Miranda, who hit the injured list with a shoulder impingement. Wallner has exclusively appeared at the outfield corners for Triple-A St. Paul, so Miranda's absence doesn't necessarily open up a ton of playing time. Wallner spent brief stints in the majors in both April and May, posting a 1.099 OPS in 11 games. He's hit .291/.403/.524 for St. Paul, but it's taken a .399 BABIP to get there. His 28.5 percent strikeout rate in Triple-A could reach problematic levels in the majors.

Dispatched to minors The Twins optioned Wallner to Triple-A St. Paul on Monday.
Impact Wallner was sent out to make room on the 26-man active roster for fellow outfielder Max Kepler (hamstring), who was reinstated from the 10-day injured list. During his six-day stint in the big leagues, Wallner appeared in five games and went 7-for-11 with a home run, a double, two walks, four RBI, two runs and a stolen base.
MAY 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Heading back to minors Wallner will be optioned to Triple-A St. Paul on Monday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.
Impact Wallner joined the big-league club Tuesday and went 7-for-11 with a homer, a double, four RBI and two runs over five games with the Twins. However, he'll head back to the minors since Max Kepler (hamstring) and Royce Lewis (knee) are set to be reinstated from the injured list Monday.

Four-hit game in win Wallner went 4-for-4 with a homer, three RBI and one run scored in Saturday's 9-7 win over Toronto.
Impact Wallner was called up Tuesday from Triple-A with several outfielders out (Trevor Larnach, Max Kepler, Nick Gordon), but could force his way into the everyday lineup if he stays hot. He's 5-for-9 over his last three games.
