Twins' Joe Mauer taking a seat on Wednesday
Minnesota Twins first baseman Joe Mauer is not starting on Wednesday versus the New York Yankees.
What It Means:
It's likely just a standard maintenance day for Mauer, who will be replaced at first base by Miguel Sano on Wednesday afternoon. The 34-year-old veteran is slashing .281/.357/.392 in 322 plate appearances (77 games) this season.
numberFire's models project Mauer to record a .277 batting average in 233 plate appearances over the remainder of the 2017 campaign.
