Joe Mauer on the sidelines Wednesday for Twins
Minnesota Twins first baseman Joe Mauer (quad) is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Tigers.
What It Means:
Mauer continues to deal with soreness in his quads that have been bothering him since the middle of August. His last game was on September 10, although there was some hope he would return Wednesday. Kennys Vargas will replace Mauer at first and hit fourth against Tigers righty Anibal Sanchez.
Mauer owns a .269/.368/.401 slash with a .332 wOBA and .132 ISO in 557 plate appearances this season. His 13.5 walk percentage and 16.0 strikeout percentage are both above his career averages.
