Wallner went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Wednesday's 11-4 rout of the Padres.

EDGE Analysis

Wallner broke open the contest with a three-run blast to right field in the fourth inning to give Minnesota an 8-0 lead. The long ball ended a season-long 11-game homerless stretch for Wallner, and he had gone just 6-for-29 with 12 strikeouts during that stretch. He's nonetheless held onto a near-everyday role in the Twins' lineup, starting five of the team's past six games either at DH or in left field.

Wallner isn't in the Twins' lineup for Tuesday's game versus San Diego.

EDGE Analysis

Wallner and his career .476 OPS against lefties will take a seat Tuesday as the Padres send southpaw Martin Perez to the mound. His absence will move Royce Lewis into the DH spot while Jose Miranda starts at third base.

Wallner isn't in the Twins' lineup for Thursday's game versus Texas.

EDGE Analysis

Left-hander Cody Bradford will throw the first pitch for the Rangers in Thursday's series opener, so the left-handed bat of Wallner will step out of the lineup. In his absence, Jose Miranda will serve as the Twins' designated hitter and bat fourth.

Wallner is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

With a tough lefty (Cole Ragans) taking the hill for Kansas City, the lefty-hitting Wallner will exit the lineup after starting in each of the past five games. Royce Lewis will get a day out of the infield and will replace Wallner as the Twins' designated hitter.

Wallner is absent from the lineup for the first game of Friday's doubleheader against the Guardians.

EDGE Analysis

Wallner will serve as the Twins' designated hitter and cleanup batter in Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Wallner has now started in nine consecutive matchups with right-handed pitching and may have supplanted Jose Miranda as the Twins' preferred option at DH. The Twins will have room for both players in the lineup Wednesday, however, as Royce Lewis will get the day off to open up third base for Miranda. Wallner comes into Wednesday's contest having produced a 1.431 OPS over his last 10 games.

Wallner went 2-for-5 with a double, a two-run home run and a second run scored in Wednesday's 8-3 win over the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old outfielder got hold of a Luis Severino changeup in the third inning and crushed it over the wall in right-center field, capping a five-run frame for the Twins. Wallner has gone yard three times in his last four starts, and since rejoining the big-league roster in early July he's batting .364 (16-for-44) in 15 contests with five of his six homers on the season.

EDGE Analysis

EDGE Analysis

Wallner took Keider Montero deep in the second inning for one of four Twins homers on Friday. Wallner has now homered in back-to-back games for the third time in his career and second time this month. After struggling early and being sent down in April, Wallner was called back up in July and has four of his five homers over his last 12 games. The 26-year-old is hitting .353 since his recent call-up and should continue to get starts in the Twins outfield.

Wallner is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

The lefty-hitting Wallner is on the bench for the second game in a row, with his absence Monday coming while the Phillies bring a southpaw (Ranger Suarez) to the hill. With Wallner taking a seat, Manuel Margot will pick up a start in left field.
