Clemens started at first base and went 0-for-4 in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Guardians. He looks set to be the primary first baseman after the Twins made a flurry of trades Thursday, Matthew Leach of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Clemens continues to have a solid season since joining the Twins as he hit three home runs with a .805 OPS in July. He'll likely have a regular role in the lineup the rest of the season as there doesn't appear to be a clear first basemen among the younger players the Twins will likely give trials to amid a rebuilding effort.

Clemens isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Clemens racked up four hits and four RBI over his first two games out of the All-Star break, but he went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts and a sacrifice fly Monday. He'll now take a seat Tuesday, opening a spot in the lineup for Ty France to start at first base.

Clemens went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run during Saturday's 12-4 win over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Clemens got the scoring started for the Twins with his third home run in July, a 389-foot, three-run blast that kickstarted a six-run second inning. The 29-year-old, who was claimed off waivers by the Twins earlier this year, continues to be a valuable power bat as he's slashing .225/.306/.528 with 12 home runs and 26 RBI with Minnesota. With Luke Keaschall (forearm) getting closer to a return, how much playing time that will be available for Clemens on the other side of the All-Star break remains to be seen.

Clemens is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
The left-handed-hitting Clemens had garnered the last two starts at first base against right-handed pitching, but he will begin Wednesday's contest on the bench as the Cubs send righty Cade Horton to the bump. Ty France will start at first base and will bat eighth for the Twins.

Clemens is not in the Twins' starting lineup against the Tigers on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Clemens will hit the bench after starting in the Twins' last six games, going 3-for-18 (.167) with four runs scored and two solo homers over that span. Willi Castro will shift to the keystone while Trevor Larnach, Harrison Bader and Matt Wallner start in the outfield from left to right.

Clemens went 1-for-1 with a solo home run, a walk and two runs in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
Clemens got the Twins on the board with a solo blast off Luis Castillo in the third inning. Clemens has picked up three consecutive starts at second base, and he could be in store for regular opportunities against right-handed pitching while the absence of Royce Lewis (hamstring) creates an opening in the infield.

Clemens went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored during Thursday's 12-5 win over Cincinnati.
EDGE Analysis
Clemens launched his seventh home run of the season, tagging Nick Martinez for a two-run homer that plated Ryan Jeffers. Clemens came into Thursday's contest hitless in his last 11 at-bats and without a multi-hit game since May 19. On the year, Clemens is slashing .219/.317/.486 in 121 plate appearances.

Clemens will start at second base and bat ninth in Thursday's game against the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Clemens started just once in the Twins' last six games while the team faced off against five left-handed pitchers, but he finds himself in the starting nine for the third consecutive matchup with a righty. Outfielder Harrison Bader, meanwhile, has been on the bench for all three of those matchups with righties, so Bader and Clemens could end up forming a de facto righty/lefty platoon while the Twins have an open spot in the lineup with Royce Lewis (hamstring) on the injured list. Both Clemens and Bader could see their opportunities tail off once Lewis is back in action.

Clemens is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Though he'll take a seat with southpaw Patrick Corbin on the bump for Texas, the left-handed-hitting Clemens had started at second base in five of the previous six games. Clemens went just 2-for-17 with a home run and two walks in that six-game stretch, however, and with Royce Lewis finally beginning to break out of his extended slump at the plate, Clemens could end up losing out on more opportunities to play against right-handers in the near future.
