Minnesota Twins infielder Luis Arraez (hamstring) is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's series finale against left-hander Daniel Lynch and the Kansas City Royals.
Arraez left Wednesday's game versus the Royals due to hamstring tightness, but his MRI came back clean and he's considered day-to-day. Kyle Garlick will cover the leadoff role and be the Twins' designated hitter Thursday while Jermaine Palacios starts on second base and bats eighth.
Garlick is numberFire's third-best point-per-dollar value among batters on Thursday. He has a $2,300 salary and numberFire's models project him for 11.6 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Twins’ implied total (4.71) is No. 4 out of 16 teams in the majors today.
