Twins' Kyle Farmer idle Friday

Minnesota Twins infielder Kyle Farmer is not in the lineup against right-hander Dane Dunning and the Texas Rangers on Friday.

What It Means:

Farmer started the past three games and went 4-for-7 with 2 homers, 3 RBI, and 3 runs scored. Jorge Polanco is moving to second base on Friday while Edouard Julien returns to designated hitter and leadoff duty.

numberFire’s models project Polanco ($3,000) for 8.1 and Julien ($2,900) for 10.7 FanDuel points on Friday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Twins' implied total is 4.33 and the game total is 8.5. Dunning has a 3.19 ERA in front of a 4.36 xERA this season, with a 40.2% hard-hit rate, 18.7% strikeout rate, and 6.5% walk rate. His strikeout rate is low (bottom 18th percentile of MLB), but he also isn't handing out many walks (top 77th).
