Max Kepler Out Of The Lineup Wednesday
3 years agoMinnesota Twins outfielder Max Kepler (illness) is out of the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Baltimore Orioles. Kepler left the game early on Tuesday because he was feeling under the weather, but the good news is that he tested negative for COVID-19, so he should be back soon. Trevor Larnach is starting in right field and hitting cleanup, while Nick Gordon gets a start in left field and is batting sixth against Orioles right-hander Kyle Bradish. Kepler is off to a solid start through 24 games, hitting five home runs and driving in 12 runs, so hopefully he'll be back in the lineup for the Twins next game. Larnach is still searching for his first home run this season, but he's hitting .286 in 56 at-bats and is a fine DFS target against the O's on Wednesday.
