Twins' Kody Clemens: Day off against lefty
Clemens is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest in San Francisco.
The lefty-swinging Clemens has been an everyday player for the vast majority of the season for the Twins, but this will be his second straight time out of the lineup versus a lefty. Royce Lewis will handle second base for Minnesota.

Twins' Walker Jenkins: Taking seat versus southpaw
Jenkins is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game in San Francisco.
The left-handed-hitting Jenkins is just 1-for-16 with a 1:7 BB:K thus far against lefties, and he will take a seat Wednesday as the Giants send southpaw Cesar Perdomo to the hill. Emmanuel Rodriguez will patrol center field for the Twins.

Twins' Walker Jenkins: Goes yard in win
Jenkins went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Giants.
Jenkins has four homers on the season, including three during his active six-game hitting streak. The outfielder struggled for much of the first half of September, but he looks to have figured some things out at the plate. He's batting .214 with a .709 OPS across 79 plate appearances.

Twins' Jeff Hoffman: Picks up save
Hoffman allowed a run on two walks and struck out one in a hitless inning to earn the save in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Giants.
The Giants scraped together a run off Hoffman, but he was able to preserve the lead for his first save as a Twin. Yoendrys Gomez hasn't pitched since Saturday, but his recent struggles likely paved the way for Hoffman to get this save chance. On the year, Hoffman has a 3.55 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 102:30 K:BB through 66 innings while adding six saves, 22 holds and four blown saves between Minnesota and Toronto.

Twins' Taj Bradley: Secures 200-strikeout season
Bradley (12-6) allowed one run on three hits and three walks while striking out six over six innings to earn the win over the Giants on Tuesday.
Bradley had a strong performance, throwing 104 pitches (67 strikes) to collect his third straight quality start. The right-hander has given up one run or less in four of his last seven starts. He's at a 3.73 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 205:76 K:BB through 178.1 innings over 31 starts. Since Minnesota is off Thursday, it's likely Bradley has completed his work this season.

Twins' Zebby Matthews: Suffers 11th loss
Matthews (9-11) took the loss Monday, allowing five runs on eight hits and no walks over five innings against the Giants. He struck out nine.
Matthews got roughed up early, giving up four runs in the first two frames, though he still racked up his highest strikeout total since July 31. In four September starts, the right-hander has posted a 6.87 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 23:7 K:BB across 18.1 innings. Overall, Matthews owns a 4.90 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 116:39 K:BB in 130.1 innings (23 starts) and is tentatively lined up to make his final start of the regular season Sunday against the Rangers.

Twins' Royce Lewis: On bench for Minnesota
Lewis is not in the lineup for Monday's game in San Francisco.
Lewis has slashed just .183/.207/.243 with one home run and a 4:28 BB:K over his last 30 games to drop his season batting line to .227/.290/.381. Aaron Sabato is starting at first base for the Twins on Monday, and he could continue playing over Lewis at the position during the final week of the regular season.

Twins' Walker Jenkins: Another start in leadoff spot
Jenkins will start in center field and bat leadoff in Monday's contest versus the Giants.
It's the second straight day in the leadoff spot for Jenkins, who had not hit higher than eighth in any starts prior to this two-game stretch. After going 4-for-45 (.089) in his first 16 major-league games, Jenkins is 9-for-17 with a pair of home runs across his last four contests.

Twins' Aaron Sabato: Added to roster
The Twins selected Sabato's contract from Triple-A St. Paul on Monday.
Sabato slashed .273/.349/.528 with 25 home runs and a 41:119 BB:K over 113 games this season with St. Paul to earn his first big-league promotion. The 27-year-old first baseman could eat into the playing time of Royce Lewis, who is slashing just .184/.218/.248 over his last 33 games.

Twins' Alex Jackson: Removed from 40-man roster
The Twins designated Jackson for assignment Monday.
A spot on the 40-man roster was needed for the addition of Aaron Sabato. Jackson has collected a .748 OPS with one home run and a 2:24 BB:K across 73 plate appearances for the Twins this season. There's a good chance he will clear waivers.

Twins' Aaron Sabato: Poised for promotion
The Twins will call up Sabato from Triple-A St. Paul prior to Monday's game against the Giants, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune reports.
A first-round pick in the 2020 First-Year Player Draft, Sabato will receive his first promotion to the big leagues after slashing .273/.349/.528 with 25 home runs and a 41:119 BB:K over 113 games this season with St. Paul. The 27-year-old could get regular reps at first base during the final week of the regular season in place of the struggling Royce Lewis.
