    • Cranks first home run
      Torres went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Thursday's 7-2 loss to the Orioles.

      Advice: Torres led off the sixth inning with a 418-foot shot to center field off Keegan Akin, cutting the Yankees' deficit to 7-2. While it didn't ultimately impact the final score, the home run was certainly a weight off of Torres' shoulders -- he'd gone 32 games without a long ball to start the campaign, a homerless streak of 53 regular-season games if you go back to Torres' last home run Sept. 7. The 27-year-old second baseman is now slashing a disappointing .218/.295/.274 to open the year with 15 runs scored, seven RBI and three stolen bases. Rotowire.com Today, 4:32 pm
       
    • Julien out of lineup as Twins bench all lefties
      The Twins are opting to bench all their left-handed hitters against Garrett Crochet, which means Edouard Julien, Alex Kirilloff, Trevor Larnach, and Max Kepler are all on the bench on Monday.

      Advice: We had been waiting to see who would get the short end of the stick with Carlos Correa returning from the IL, but it’s impossible to tell that from this lineup. The Twins continue to be the most platoon-heavy lineup in baseball, which is incredibly frustrating for fantasy purposes. Kyle Farmer will get the start at 2B with Manuel Margot in RF, and Willi Castro in LF. Rotoworld Monday, 12:27 pm
       
    • Out again versus lefty
      Julien is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the White Sox.

      Advice: The Twins are facing a lefty for the fourth time in the last six games and Julien has been out of the lineup on all four occasions. Kyle Farmer will handle second base in Julien's place. Rotowire.com Monday, 12:26 pm
       
    • Rests against lefty
      Julien is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Julien will retreat to the bench with southpaw Reid Detmers on the hill for the Angels. Kyle Farmer will step in for Julien at second base. Rotowire.com Sunday, 11:22 am
       
    • Belts two homers in win
      Julien went 2-for-4 with two solo homers in Thursday's win over the White Sox.

      Advice: Julien has shown good power early in the season with seven home runs and a .513 SLG, with three of those long balls coming in his past four contests. He's hitting just .213 and has a 31.9 percent strikeout rate, which is a marginal increase on his strikeout rate from last season. Rotowire.com Thursday, 10:13 pm
       
    • Julien has two hits, home run in win over CWS
      Edouard Julien went 2-for-4 with a home run, two runs, and two RBI in a win over the White Sox on Thursday.

      Advice: The 24-year-old hasn’t had a great start to the season, but he’s playing every day and is starting to find his groove a little at the plate. Although his season slash line is just .213/.308/.513, he has seven home runs and nine RBI and is 7-for-24 over his last six games with two home runs. With the Twins as banged up as they are, he should continue to get a chance to right the ship, and his elite plate discipline and strong batted-ball quality make him a fine waiver-wire target to see if he can keep his hot stretch going.

    • Resting Wednesday
      Julien is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Julien will retreat to the bench Wednesday while southpaw Garrett Crochet takes the bump for Chicago. Kyle Farmer will step in for Julien at second base and will bat eighth. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 12:04 pm
       
    • Belts fifth homer
      Julien went 3-for-4 with a home run, a double, two runs scored and two RBI in Monday's win over the White Sox.

      Advice: Julien doubled in a run during the fourth inning before capping off the 7-0 victory with a solo shot in the seventh. He was stuck in a 3-for-24 skid over his previous seven games since his last long ball April 13. Julien continues to flash his power potential with five home runs and eight extra-base hits through 81 plate appearances. However, his inconsistency has led to a .211/.300/.465 slash line.

    • Edouard Julien homers, plates two in blowout win
      Edouard Julien went 3-for-4 with a solo homer and two RBI on Monday, leading the Twins to a 7-0 blowout victory over the White Sox.

      Advice: Julien did all of his damage in the middle innings once Minnesota already holding a commanding lead, but fantasy managers certainly don’t mind. He smacked an RBI double in the fourth inning before taking reliever Chris Flexen deep for a no-doubter to right field -- his fifth round-tripper of the season -- in the seventh inning to close out the scoring. The 24-year-old on-base machine has gotten off to a slow start at the plate with a .211 (15-for-71) batting average through 21 contests, but he continues to do damage against right-handed pitching.
