Max Kepler on Minnesota bench Thursday

Minnesota Twins outfielder Max Kepler is not in the lineup for Thursday afternoon's series finale against left-hander Jordan Montgomery and the Arizona Diamondbacks.

What It Means

The left-handed hitting Kepler will take a seat against the Diamondbacks' southpaw. Manuel Margot will fill the void in right field and take over as the Twins' leadoff batter. Jose Miranda will replace Kepler in the cleanup spot.

numberFire's models project Margot for 11.1 and Miranda for 12.4 FanDuel points on Thursday. They are both currently in our top-three point-per-dollar values among batters today. Among qualified pitchers this season, Montgomery rates in the bottom 10th percentile with a 15.8 strikeout percentage. His xERA is in the bottom 14th and his xBA is in the bottom 6th percentile.
