Edouard Julien Stats

Minnesota Twins second baseman Edouard Julien will take a seat Sunday night against Houston Astros starting pitcher Framber Valdez. With Julien on the bench, Jorge Polanco will move over to second base while Kyle Farmer jumps in the lineup and will play third base. Julien had a .196/.229/.217 slash line against left-handers this season so it's not a surprise to see him on the bench Sunday. The rookie was a productive hitter and did damage against righties. He will be a big piece of the Minnesota offense next season and a popular fantasy name as well.

Minnesota Twins rookie second baseman Edouard Julien (hamstring) has returned to the keystone and is batting leadoff for the Twins on Wednesday against the visiting Detroit Tigers and right-hander Reese Olson. Julien missed just one game on Tuesday due to a mild hamstring issue, but he's back in action on Wednesday. The 24-year-old Canadian infielder has impressed so far in his first MLB season, hitting .281/.378/.479 with an .857 OPS, 10 home runs, 11 doubles, a triple, 18 RBI, three stolen bases and 37 runs scored in 255 trips to the plate over 70 games played. Julien has plenty of value in mixed leagues hitting atop Minnesota's batting order, but he's also gone just 7-for-36 (.194) with no homers or RBI, a stolen base and seven runs scored in 12 games (10 starts) so far in August.

Minnesota Twins second baseman Edouard Julien (hamstring) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Tigers. It appears the 24-year-old is dealing with a hamstring issue, so the Twins will hold him out of the lineup. It's also worth noting that Julien is in a 1-for-16 slump, which could be part of the reason he's out of the lineup as well. Jorge Polanco bat leadoff and shift over to second base versus right-hander Alex Faedo on Tuesday. Fantasy managers should check back for another update on Julien.
