Fantasy Impact:

Fantasy managers should make themselves comfortable as they wait for the return of the 28-year-old outfielder. Baldelli seemed optimistic that Buxton could rejoin the lineup on Friday or Saturday when the Twins host the Rockies, but fantasy managers shouldn't count on that happening. It is best to have a backup plan heading into the weekend.
