Miguel Sano (elbow) out for Minnesota Tuesday against Atlanta

Minnesota Twins third baseman/outfielder Miguel Sano (elbow) is out of the starting lineup Tuesday against the Atlanta Braves.

What It Means:

Despite an MRI taken Monday that didn't show any structural damage, Sano is dealing with discomfort in his elbow. He can be considered day-to-day. With the game being played in Atlanta, there isn't a designated hitter available in this contest and Trevor Plouffe -- and his .285 wOBA this season -- will start at third base.

Sano owns a solid .355 wOBA and a 122 wRC+ this season (363 plate appearances), but these totals are down from .392 and 151, respectively, from a season ago (335 plate appearances). We currently project him to hit seven more taters and post a .835 OPS over the rest of the year.
