Martin was removed after three innings of Monday's Grapefruit League game against the Pirates after sustaining a concussion, Bobby Nightengale of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Per Matthew Leach of MLB.com, Martin appeared to suffer the head injury when he landed awkwardly while trying to make a play on ball hit to right field. Though the Twins' season opener isn't until March 26 in Baltimore, the volatile recovery timeline for concussions could put Martin at risk of being shelved to begin the campaign. Before suffering the concussion, Martin had appeared on solid ground to make the Opening Day roster as a platoon option in the outfield.

Martin went 0-for-3 in Thursday's win over Boston and is hitting just .231 (6-for-21) with three stolen bases this spring. Despite the lackluster spring, he's still seen as making the final roster and getting regular time as a platoon option in left field, the Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Martin is a right-handed batter in a left-handed heavy outfield, so he'll likely work on the short side of a platoon in left field to begin the season. Martin has also had some playing time at second base this spring, so he could get some time there as well in a limited bench role. Martin got regular duty the final two months last season and made the most of it by hitting .282 with a 113 wRC+. While he lacks power, he had 11 stolen bases in just 50 games in the majors last season.

Martin is absent from the lineup for Friday's game in Philadelphia.

EDGE Analysis

After making 15 straight starts, Martin will sit out for the second time over the last three contests. James Outman will handle left field and bat eighth.

Martin went 1-for-4 with a double, four RBI, a run scored and two steals in Monday's win over the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

Martin made his presence felt in Monday's win despite logging just one hit, driving in more than half of Minnesota's runs and stealing a pair of bags. The 2020 first-rounder has capitalized on increased playing time, posting an .832 OPS over his last 15 games and an .810 mark across his past 30 contests.

Martin will start in left field and bat second in Wednesday's game against the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

Martin will cover left field for the fourth straight game and appears to have emerged as the Twins' preferred option at the position over James Outman. Since the start of September, Martin has slashed .385/.484/.462 with two doubles, a 5:4 BB:K and six runs.

Martin went 3-for-4 with a walk and a run scored in Thursday's 11-8 loss to the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Martin has been in the lineup in three straight games. He's gone 10-for-24 (.417) with eight walks over his last nine contests. He should maintain a decent share of playing time in the outfield as long as he's getting on base at a steady rate. For the season, Martin is slashing .284/.383/.370 with one home run, six stolen bases, two RBI, 11 runs scored, two doubles and one triple over 95 plate appearances since his call-up at the start of August.

Martin is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

Martin had started in the final two games of the Twins' weekend series with the Royals but will head to the bench as Minnesota kicks off a three-game set in New York. With Byron Buxton (rib) making his return from the injured list Monday, Martin will no longer be in line for steady reps in center field, but he could factor into the mix for starts at either corner-outfield spot.

Martin is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

Alan Roden will enter the lineup in center field in place of Martin, who went 1-for-13 with a run scored and a stolen base while starting in each of the last three contests. Martin and Roden will likely share center field until Byron Buxton (rib) returns from the injured list, at which point the two may then vie for playing time at corner-outfield spot while Trevor Larnach or Matt Wallner see more opportunities at designated hitter.

Martin isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Guardians.

EDGE Analysis

Martin will get a chance to catch his breath Saturday after going 3-for-5 during his season debut in Friday's loss. DaShawn Keirsey will fill in as the Twins' center fielder and bat ninth.

Martin batted leadoff and started in center field, going 3-for-5 in Friday's loss to the Guardians.

EDGE Analysis

Martin has a chance to earn everyday playing time in the outfield after the Twins traded several starters at the trade deadline. While he had an unimpressive .670 OPS in 93 games last year in the majors, he slashed .319/.431/.398 with two stolen bases and a 21:17 BB:K across 137 plate appearances with Triple-A St. Paul this season.
