Buxton (shoulder) is not in the Twins' starting lineup against the Royals on Sunday.
Buxton will be out of the lineup for a second consecutive game due to a right shoulder injury that he sustained Friday after colliding with the outfield wall. With the Twins off Monday, Aaron Gleeman of AaronGleeman.com relays that Buxton has a good chance of being back in action for Tuesday's series opener against the Tigers. Ryan Kreidler will start in center field and bat ninth in Sunday's series finale.
