Jeffers is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels. Jeffers will receive a breather for the series finale after he made starts in each of the last four games, with both of the last two coming at catcher. Christian Vazquez will step in behind the dish Wednesday.

Jeffers will serve as the Twins' designated hitter and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Royals. With Carlos Santana (illness) sitting out, Jeffers will be included in the lineup for the fifth time in six games. Jeffers has made three starts at catcher and two at DH during that stretch, but he'll likely fall back into more of a timeshare behind the plate with Christian Vazquez and see his opportunities at DH diminish once Santana is healthy again.

Jeffers is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Royals. Jeffers will get what looks like a routine breather after three straight starts, including two starts behind the plate in the past three days. Christian Vazquez will catch for starting pitcher Zebby Matthews.

Jeffers is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rays. The Twins continue to employ a near-even split of the catching duties between Jeffers and Christian Vazquez. After Jeffers caught all nine innings of Sunday's 4-3 win over the Blue Jays, Vazquez will get a turn behind the plate in Monday's series opener.

Jeffers is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Blue Jays. Christian Vazquez will step in behind the plate to catch for starting pitcher Zebby Matthews. Jeffers has enjoyed a productive month with a .926 OPS and five homers, and for the season he's been a top-10 fantasy catcher.
