Kody Clemens - Remains hot with three hits Clemens went 3-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in a 7-0 win against Milwaukee on Saturday.
Impact Clemens collected his first three-hit performance of the campaign, with one of his knocks being a solo homer in the fifth inning. The 29-year-old began the campaign with just three hits over his first 24 at-bats, but he's picked things up of late. Over his past four contests, Clemens has recorded three multi-hit efforts while going 7-for-15 with two long balls and six RBI.

Ryan Jeffers - Racks up four hits Saturday Jeffers went 4-for-5 with a solo home run, an additional run and a double in Saturday's 7-0 win against the Brewers.
Impact Jeffers gave Minnesota an early lead with a 420-foot solo blast in the first inning. He added three more knocks to log his first four-hit game of the campaign. The veteran catcher is hitting well with a .270/.350/.418 slash line through 137 plate appearances on the season. However, he's gone deep just three times after slugging 21 home runs last year.

Pablo López - Dominates Brewers in victory Lopez (4-2) earned the win over Milwaukee on Saturday, allowing two hits and issuing two walks while striking out six batters over six scoreless innings.
Impact Lopez racked up 14 whiffs and didn't allow any extra-base hits to cruise to his third victory over his past five starts. The right-hander finished with his third quality start of the campaign and lowered his season ERA to 2.40. Lopez has struck out at least six batters in each of his past six outings, posting a splendid 41:8 K:BB over 33 innings during that span. He's projected to face the Royals in his next start.

Carson McCusker - Set to be called up from Triple-A McCusker is expected to be called up from Triple-A St. Paul before Sunday's game, Matthew Leach of MLB.com reports.
Impact McCusker will take the place of Byron Buxton, who was placed on the 7-day concussion IL. McCusker isn't seen as a top prospect as a 27-year old playing in Triple-A and without much pedigree as an undrafted free agent. Still, he's hitting .350 with 10 home runs and a 1.062 OPS in 38 games, so he may get a chance to prove he's for real with the Twins having several openings in the lineup due to injury.

Byron Buxton - Placed on concussion IL The Twins placed Buxton on the 7-day concussion injured list Saturday.
Impact It had previously been reported that Buxton cleared concussion protocol after bumping heads with Carlos Correa (concussion) on Thursday, but that has turned out not to be the case. Buxton's move is retroactive to Friday, so he'll be required to miss only six more days before being eligible for activation, and the Twins will make a corresponding move to fill his roster spot Sunday.

Byron Buxton remains out of Twins' lineup as they aim for 13 straight Willi Castro is also out of the lineup, but Harrison Bader returns after missing two games.

Willi Castro - Out of lineup Saturday Castro (knee) isn't in the starting lineup for Saturday's matchup versus Milwaukee.
Impact Castro was pulled early from Friday's game against the Brewers after fouling a ball off his knee in the first inning. Though he was able to finish his at-bat, the utility man was replaced in the field for the following frame and will now be held out of the lineup for at least one game. Castro had started in left field Friday with Harrison Bader out of action while battling a groin injury, but Bader is back in action and starting in left Saturday.

Harrison Bader - Returning to lineup Saturday Bader (groin) is starting in left field and batting seventh Saturday versus the Brewers.
Impact A groin issue caused Bader to sit both Thursday and Friday after he was pulled early during the second game of a twin bill Wednesday. However, the injury doesn't appear to be severe, as Bader is back starting Saturday. Willi Castro -- who started in left field in Bader's stead Friday -- is out of the lineup Saturday while he deals with a knee injury.

Byron Buxton - Remains out Saturday Buxton (head) is not in the lineup for Saturday's game versus Milwaukee.
Impact Buxton will begin on the bench for a second straight game following Thursday's collision with Carlos Correa. While Correa was diagnosed with a concussion, Buxton has cleared concussion protocol, though it's not clear if he could be used off the bench. With Buxton out of the lineup Saturday, DaShawn Keirsey is getting a second consecutive start in center field.

Cole Sands - Picks up second save Sands struck out two in a perfect ninth inning Friday to record his second save of the season in a 3-0 win over the Brewers.
Impact Jhoan Duran was unavailable after pitching Wednesday and Thursday, but manager Rocco Baldelli elected to use Griffin Jax in the eighth inning Friday against the top of Milwaukee's order before handing the ball to Sands for the ninth. Sands has earned his spot in Minnesota's high-leverage crew with a 2.55 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 14:6 K:BB through 17.2 innings on the season, but despite picking up two saves in the last three days -- his first came in the second game of Wednesday's twin bill after Duran had worked the matinee -- the 27-year-old righty still appears to be no higher than third in the pecking order for closing duties.

Joe Ryan - Dominant in fourth win Ryan (4-2) picked up the win Friday, allowing two hits and a walk over six scoreless innings in a 3-0 victory over the Brewers. He struck out nine.
Impact Milwaukee got a runner to third base in the first inning on a Brice Turang single and a couple stolen bases, but it was as close as the home side would come to getting a run on the board off Ryan. The right-hander fired 64 of 99 pitches for strikes en route to his fourth straight quality start, and he'll take a 2.42 ERA, 0.79 WHIP and 63:6 K:BB through 52 innings into his next outing, which lines up to come at home next week against the Guardians.
