Dozier went 2-for-3 with a walk and a run in Saturday's 15-4 loss to the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

The 29-year-old has had a rough season at the plate, but is enjoying his best stretch of offense to date in 2016. He's now hit safely in nine of 10 June contests, is hitting .350 for the month, and currently has a five-game hitting streak. Dozier has also gone deep twice this month, equaling his May total, and his eight RBI already exceed his seven from last month. The veteran was hitting .199 as recently as May 24, but has raised his average 31 points since that date.

Dozier hit a walk-off two-run homer in the eleventh inning as part of a 2-for-5 game Tuesday against the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

Dozier is still floundering with a .211/.301/.367 batting line, but his usual power is starting to show up. In his past 12 games, Dozier has seven extra-base hits including three home runs. Unfortunately, Dozier hasn't been running much this year -- just three steals in as many attempts -- and considering his poor career .237 batting average, he needs to be a dual power-speed threat in order to be the major fantasy asset he used to be.

Dozier went 2-for-4 with a double in Saturday's loss to Tampa Bay.

EDGE Analysis

After a slow start to the season, Dozier finally appears to be turning things around as he's hitting .263 with two home runs and an .896 OPS in his last ten games.

Dozier went 1-for-3 with a home run, two RBI and a walk against Tampa Bay on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

The former All-Star saw his average climb over the Mendoza line a few days ago, but his overall numbers have been disappointing thus far. He's hit in seven of the last eight games, and he has two doubles, two homers and five RBI on that span, so perhaps he's on the verge of coming out of his slump.

Dozier went 1-for-2 with an RBI, a walk and a strikeout against the Athletics on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Dozier has struggled mightily at the plate hitting only .227 during May, but that's an improvement over his .191 mark during April. Maybe the RBI could be a sign of things to come for the former All-Star. The 29-year-old second baseman has put together a five-game hitting streak, but he has hit only .176 over the past 10 contests.

Dozier remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Kansas City.

EDGE Analysis

Tuesday marks Dozier's second day off in a row after getting seven starts in a row earlier in the month. That said, Dozier has been struggling mightily at the plate, batting .087 over the last week and .143 over the last two weeks. Eduardo Nunez will take over at second base for the Twins on Tuesday against Edinson Volquez and the Royals.

Dozier is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

Eduardo Nunez will get the start at second base in his place. Dozier is struggling mightily this season, hitting just .199/.284/.318 with four home runs and 14 RBI through 39 games.

Dozier is leading off Thursday against the Blue Jays, Brandon Warne of Cold Omaha reports.

EDGE Analysis

Joe Mauer has been atop the lineup of late, but the Twins will mix things up Thursday, as Mauer shifts down to the No. 3 spot. Dozier will slot in at his usual second base position, defensively.

Twins manager Paul Molitor suggested after Sunday's game that Dozier has been playing at less than 100 percent recently, ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

That sheds new light on his day off Sunday, but other than getting hit in the leg by a pitch Saturday, there's been no suggestion of what injury or injuries he might be nursing. Minnesota doesn't get another break in their schedule until May 26, so don't be surprised if Dozier receives another rest or two in the meantime.

Dozier is out of the lineup Sunday against the Indians, MLB.com's Rhett Bollinger reports.

EDGE Analysis

It looks to be just a routine maintenance day for Dozier, who recorded one hit in seven at-bats in the first two games of the series to sink his season batting average to .218. In his place, utility man Jorge Polanco will pick up a start at the keystone.
