Taking seat Saturday
Buxton (shoulder) isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Royals.
Analyse
Buxton injured his right shoulder colliding with the outfield wall while making a catch Friday, and the Twins will give him a day off Saturday so that he can recover. Ryan Kreidler will patrol center field in Buxton's stead.

Exits after collision with wall
Buxton was removed from Friday's game against the Royals with a right shoulder contusion after colliding with the outfield wall, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
Analyse
Buxton initially remained in the game after running into the wall while making a catch in the third inning, but he was later lifted for a pinch hitter. The Twins haven't yet offered any information on the severity of their star outfielder's injury, but more details may come in the near future.

Launches 18th homer in loss
Buxton went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Thursday's 8-6 loss to Kansas City.
Analyse
Buxton wasted no time getting Minnesota on the board, leading off the bottom of the first inning with a 430-foot solo homer off Seth Lugo to tie the game. The blast was his 18th of the season, as he sits at the fourth-most long balls in MLB. The veteran outfielder also added a second hit and a walk as he continues to be productive following his recent return from hip issues. Since rejoining the lineup, Buxton is batting 14-for-56 (.250) with three homers across 14 games.

Resting up Sunday
Buxton is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates.
Analyse
With the Twins wrapping up their series in Pittsburgh with a day game, Buxton is likely just getting a planned maintenance day after he recently missed time due to a sore right hip flexor. Since returning to the lineup May 19, Buxton has made all but one of his 10 starts at designated hitter and has gone 10-for-39 (.256 average) with two home runs, three doubles, four RBI and seven runs. The Twins haven't indicated when Buxton might be ready to play center field on a full-time basis, but fantasy managers can feel comfortable with keeping him active while he's still seeing regular at-bats at DH.
