Thu Jul 20 202314:41Carlos Correa On The Bench Thursday
Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa is not in the starting lineup Thursday afternoon against the Seattle Mariners and right-hander George Kirby. Correa went 0-for-5 with a strikeout in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Mariners but has otherwise been hot of late. He has collected a multi-hit game in three of his last six games with three doubles and a homer in that time. July has been his best month to date this season as he's hit .298 with a .786 OPS, .347 wOBA, and a 123 wRC+ across 14 contests and 57 trips to the plate for the month. Kyle Farmer will take over at shortstop and hit eighth against Kirby on Thursday in Seattle.

Wed Jul 19 202308:17Carlos Correa Goes Deep Tuesday
Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa had himself a game on Tuesday, going 2-for-6 with a home run and two runs scored, helping his team to a 10-3 victory over the Seattle Mariners. The two-time All-Star has struggled this season, slashing .234/.309/.416 with 12 homers, 36 runs, 42 RBI, and no stolen bases over 85 games. However, the club has recently moved Correa into the leadoff spot, and he's batting .327 with a .858 OPS in the month of July. With his track record and recent hot streak, fantasy owners can continue to start the 28-year-old.

Thu Jun 15 202318:36Carlos Correa Looks To Maintain Power Stroke Versus Detroit
Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa is hitting second against southpaw Matthew Boyd and the Detroit Tigers on Thursday. The 28-year-old is knocking the ball all over the yard lately. Correa has seven extra-base hits with 10 RBI across his last 32 at-bats since returning from a three-game respite with his balky heel earlier this month. The two-time All-Star has hit well versus the Tigers, too, sporting a .299 BA with five home runs and 19 RBI in 97 at-bats against Detroit since 2019. Correa should stay locked in to season-long lineups while he's swinging a hot bat and DFS players should take a long look at the slugging shortstop on Thursday.

Wed Jun 14 202300:54Carlos Correa Hits Walk-Off Homer Tuesday
Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa made his lone hit count in Tuesday's 7-5 win over the Brewers, going 1-for-5 with a walk-off, two-run home run, three RBI, and a strikeout. The 28-year-old has struggled overall at the plate this season but has picked things up in June, batting .250 with three HR and eight RBI. This is encouraging for fantasy managers, who may have been starting to lose hope that Correa would provide any fantasy value for them. Hopefully, he can continue to turn things around.

Sat Jun 10 202318:18Carlos Correa Hits Go-Ahead Grand Slam
Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa came up clutch for his team during Saturday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. The slugging infielder was hitless coming into the eighth inning, but came up with the biggest hit of the game. Correa launched a go-ahead grand slam off right-hander Adam Cimber in the eighth inning. The Twins put together an unexpected seven-run inning to take down the Jays 9-4 on Saturday. Correa has blasted two homers in his last three games. The 28-year-old appears back in his groove after missing some time due to injury.

Wed Jun 7 202300:03Carlos Correa Doubles, Strikes Out Thrice In Return To Lineup
Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa (heel) was able to make it back into the lineup on Tuesday versus the Tampa Bay Rays. He went 1-for-4 with a double, which broke up Zach Eflin's early no-hit bid in the fourth inning, and three strikeouts in his return. The 28-year-old was out of action for the last three games as he continues to manage the plantar fasciitis in his left foot. Correa has been a massive fantasy disappointment, hitting just .208/.298/.375 with 6 homers and 24 RBI over 192 at-bats this season. It's fair to wonder if Minnesota would better suited sending their $200 million slugger to the injured list for a spell to mend his balky foot a bit. Correa may have to deal with the issue all season, regardless, and it seems the Twins will continue to take a day-to-day approach with the two-time All-Star.

Sun Jun 4 202312:19Byron Buxton, Carlos Correa Remain Out Against Guardians
Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (ribs) and shortstop Carlos Correa (foot) remain out of the lineup on Sunday against the Cleveland Guardians. Manager Rocco Baldelli said he's "optimistic" that Buxton and Correa will return to the lineup on Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Rays after their off day on Monday. Buxton will miss a third straight game after getting hit in the ribs by a pitch on Thursday, but he avoided any fractures and is day-to-day. Correa has been out in four of the last five games after aggravating his plantar fasciitis. With both players out again in the series finale, Royce Lewis is serving as the designated hitter and batting second, while Kyle Farmer is at shortstop and hitting sixth in the lineup against Guardians right-hander Triston McKenzie, who is making his 2023 debut.

Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa (foot) remains out of the starting lineup for Saturday's meeting with the Guardians. He's dealing with a case of plantar fasciitis, forcing him to exit Thursday's series opener against Cleveland prematurely. Fortunately, Correa is progressing, so he's hoping to return on Sunday. Kyle Farmer filled in on Thursday, amassing one hit and one run in two at-bats.

Fri Jun 2 202319:19Carlos Correa Could Return Saturday
Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa (foot) is out of the starting lineup on Friday against the Cleveland Guardians, but there is hope that he could return as soon as Saturday. Correa aggravated plantar fasciitis in his left foot in the ballgame on Thursday and was removed early, but it appears to be an issue that he can play through after one more day of rest. Still, the 28-year-old may not be 100 percent moving forward, and this is surely something that could eventually send him to the injured list. On top of it, he's hitting just .207 (39-for-188) on the year with six home runs and 24 RBI in 214 trips to the plate. In his last nine games, he's gone 7-for-29 (.241) without a home run and with just one RBI. Kyle Farmer is starting at shortstop and batting eighth on Friday against Guardians right-hander Aaron Civale.

Thu Jun 1 202322:10Carlos Correa Exits Thursday's Game Early
Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa (foot) was removed from Thursday's game against Cleveland Guardians early after re-aggravating his plantar fasciitis. He went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts before exiting. The 28-year-old had been dealing with a foot injury and re-aggravated it during Thursday's game. He is considered day-to-day for now. Correa was replaced in the lineup by Willi Castro. Correa has struggled this season, slashing .207/.299/.372 with six home runs, 24 RBI, and 15 runs over 50 games. Castro would see an uptick in playing time if Correa were to miss any additional games.

Sat May 27 202312:23Carlos Correa Sitting Out, Joey Gallo Returns Saturday
Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa (foot) is out of the starting lineup on Saturday against the Toronto Blue Jays. Meanwhile, first baseman/outfielder Joey Gallo (hamstring) is back in there, starting at first base and batting leadoff against Blue Jays right-hander Chris Bassitt. Correa is battling plantar fasciitis in his foot and missed a few games this week before returning to action on Friday. It's something he may have to manage moving forward, so his status bears watching. Kyle Farmer is starting at the 6 and hitting eighth on Saturday. Gallo missed Wednesday's game but returned as a pinch-hitter on Friday after an off day on Thursday. The left-handed slugger has struggled recently with five hits (two homers) in 23 at-bats (.217) with 11 strikeouts in his last nine games.

Fri May 26 202318:19Carlos Correa Hopeful To Avoid Injured List
Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa (foot) is in the starting lineup on Friday despite dealing with an injury. Correa was scratched from Tuesday's contest due to plantar fasciitis in his left heel. This is the type of injury that can really only be healed with rest. Manager Rocco Baldelli said the organization is hopeful that Correa can avoid a trip to the injured list. It sounds like the team is going to monitor Correa and give him extra rest if he needs it. He'll cover shortstop and bat second against Toronto Blue Jays' right-hander Kevin Gausman on Friday.

Wed May 24 202316:00Carlos Correa Dealing With Plantar Fasciitis
Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa (foot) has a muscle strain in his left-foot arch and plantar fasciitis. For now, he will avoid a trip to the injured list. "I think we get to Friday and some of our decisions might be made for us," manager Rocco Baldelli said. The Twins scratched Correa from their lineup on Tuesday, and he was also held out of the contest on Wednesday. The club has an off day on Thursday, and it sounds as though they'll know by Friday whether Correa will go on the injured list. Fantasy managers need to prepare for the possibility. If the 28-year-old misses any more time, Kyle Farmer will be the beneficiary of regular playing time at the 6. On top of his injury, Correa has struggled to a .213 average (36-for-169) in 44 games, but he does have 11 doubles, six home runs and 24 RBI.

Wed May 24 202312:12Carlos Correa Sitting Out Wednesday
Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa (heel) is not in the team's starting lineup on Wednesday against the San Francisco Giants. Correa was scratched from Tuesday's lineup due to inflammation in his bruised left heel, and he'll sit out the matinee game as a precaution. It's not a serious injury for Correa, but the Twins will play it safe and he could miss another game this week. The good news is the Twins have a day off on Thursday, so hopefully he'll be back in there to start a series against the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday. In Correa's absence, Kyle Farmer will get another start at the 6 and hit fifth in the lineup against Giants right-hander Anthony DeSclafani on Wednesday. Correa has struggled at the plate in 2023 to the tune of a .213 average (36-for-169) with 11 doubles, a triple, six homers and 24 RBI in 44 games.

Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa (heel) was scratched from the starting lineup on Tuesday against the San Francisco Giants with a bruised left heel that has been bothering him. It doesn't sound like a very serious ailment, so hopefully Correa will be back in Minnesota's lineup on Wednesday after a bit of rest. In his absence, Kyle Farmer is starting at shortstop and hitting sixth against Giants right-hander Alex Cobb. Correa has gone 6-for-24 (.250) with two doubles and an RBI in his last seven games, which is actually an improvement over his year overall. In total, the 28-year-old shortstop has struggled to a .213/.302/.396 slash line with 11 doubles, a triple, six home runs and 24 RBI in 192 plate appearances and 44 games.

Wed Apr 12 202316:52Carlos Correa Expected To Play Thursday
Minnesota Twins manager Rocco Baldelli suspects that shortstop Carlos Correa (back) will be back in the starting lineup to take on the New York Yankees on the road on Thursday. He's going through an intense day in the batting cage as a final test on Wednesday and also worked out on Tuesday. The 28-year-old has missed the last three games due to back spasms, but he appears to be fine heading into the weekend. It's good news, too, as backup shortstop Kyle Farmer (face) left Wednesday's game early after being hit by a pitch. Fantasy managers are hoping that Correa can get going after collecting six hits in his first 33 at-bats with two doubles, no home runs and two RBI in his first eight games played.

Wed Apr 12 202312:18Carlos Correa Remains Out Wednesday
Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa (back) remains out of the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Chicago White Sox. Correa is dealing with some back spasms and will miss his third straight game. Fantasy managers should continue to consider him day-to-day, and hopefully he'll be able to return for the weekend. The 28-year-old Puerto Rican shortstop has gotten off to a slow start in 2023 on top of his recent back issues, as he's hitting just .182 (6-for-33) and is searching for his first long ball after eight games played. Kyle Farmer is starting at the 6 again on Wednesday and is hitting seventh against White Sox right-hander Lucas Giolito. Farmer is a low-upside DFS play with just 40 homers in 490 career big-league games.

Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa (back) remains out of the lineup on Tuesday against the Chicago White Sox. Correa hasn't played since last Saturday due to back spasms, but fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now.

Kyle Farmer will get another start at the 6 on Tuesday and is hitting sixth in the lineup against White Sox right-hander Lance Lynn.

Mon Apr 10 202313:09Carlos Correa Out With Back Tightness
Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa (back) is out of Monday's lineup against the Chicago White Sox with back tightness. Correa was listed in the original starting lineup, but manager Rocco Baldelli thought it would be a one- to two-day thing when Correa sat out on Sunday. It doesn't sound like a very serious issue, so the 28-year-old shortstop should be back in there for Minnesota on Tuesday. Kyle Farmer is getting another start at the 6 on Monday and will bat fifth in the lineup against White Sox right-hander Dylan Cease. Correa has gotten off to a slow start at the plate in his first eight games in 2023, going 6-for-33 (.182) with two doubles, no home runs, two RBI and two runs scored in 36 plate appearances with 10 strikeouts and three walks.

Sun Apr 9 202311:28Carlos Correa Not Playing Sunday
Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa is getting a breather on Sunday against the Houston Astros. It will be Correa's first day off on the young season. The 28-year-old could use the day off, too, as he's gone only 6-for-33 (.182) in the first eight games of the year with two doubles, no home runs, two RBI, two runs scored, three walks and 10 strikeouts in 36 plate appearances. Correa will pick things up eventually, but it's a good time for him to take a day off early on. In his absence Sunday, Kyle Farmer will draw the start at shortstop and hit sixth in the lineup against Astros right-hander Hunter Brown. Farmer has hit much better than Correa to this point, going 7-for-20 (.350) with a double, home run, five RBI and six runs scored in seven games played.
