Byron Buxton is out Wednesday as Minnesota plays in Boston

Minnesota Twins centerfielder Byron Buxton is not in the lineup on Wednesday as the Twins visit the Boston Red Sox.

What It Means:

Buxton and Eduardo Escobar produced the only two Twins runs on Tuesday, and it just so happens they are the ones getting tonight off. Max Kepler is playing center, while Robbie Grossman is in right and hitting second against RIck Porcello.

Our models project Buxton for a .226 average, with 5 home runs, 23 RBI, and 8 stolen bases over 237 plate appearances remaining this season.
