Fantasy Impact

Buxton launched his two-run shot in the sixth inning to get the Twins on the scoreboard. After Tuesday's win, Buxton is slashing .233/.295/.430 with four homers, six RBI, 18 runs scored, and no stolen bases. The lack of steals is disappointing after he swiped 24 bags in 2025.

Byron Buxton exits Friday’s contest, X-rays negative

Byron Buxton exited Friday’s contest between the Minnesota Twins and the Tampa Bay Rays with a right forearm contusion according to Dan Hayes.

Fantasy Impact

Buxton exited after being hit by a pitch, but according to Hayes X-rays came back negative. The outfielder’s status should be monitored ahead of Minnesota’s next scheduled contest against Tampa Bay Saturday, with James Outman in line to patrol center field if Buxton is to miss any time for manager Derek Shelton.
