Minnesota Twins infielder Jose Miranda is out of the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the Cleveland Guardians. The right-handed slugger is having a breakout season with .292 batting average with nine home runs and 49 RBI across 117 games. However, Miranda has struggled to the tune of a .229 average against left-handed pitching. In his absence, Ryan Jeffers will serve as the designated hitter while Royce Lewis covers third base against left-handed Matthew Boyd. Fantasy managers who have Miranda rostered should adjust their lineups ahead of first pitch.
Minnesota Twins first baseman/third baseman Jose Miranda will sit out on Sunday as the Twins close out a series against the Cincinnati Reds. This is the third time this week that Miranda has been held out of the starting nine. This is due to the Twins welcoming back Byron Buxton and Carlos Correa from the injured list. As a result, the Minnesota lineup has become quite crowded, and Miranda seems to be the odd man out. Since the start of the month, the 26-year-old has held a mere .244/.244/.311 line with just one double, one RBI, and no home runs. However, from June through August, the infielder posted a strong .343/.386/.544 line. As a result, Trevor Larnach will serve as the designated hitter. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor Miranda's status as he may not be a reliable fantasy asset down the stretch due to his drop in playing time.
Minnesota Twins infielder Jose Miranda heads to the bench ahead of Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. This is a much-needed day off for Miranda who has started in each of the last 10 games. The 26-year-old is in the middle of a breakout campaign. Through 115 games, Miranda is hitting .295 with nine home runs and 49 RBI in 2024. He has moved around from first base, third base, and the designated hitter spot this season. Carlos Santana moves first base while Trevor Larnach serves as the designated hitter and bats cleanup versus right-hander Jack Kochanowicz on Wednesday. Fantasy managers should expect Miranda to be back in the lineup after this game.
Minnesota Twins infielders Jose Miranda and Brooks Lee are absent from the starting lineup at Wrigley Field on Monday against the hosting Chicago Cubs. Royce Lewis is playing third base and is batting third, while Matt Wallner will operate as the designated hitter and bat cleanup against Cubs right-hander Kyle Hendricks. Austin Martin is at the keystone and batting ninth for the Twins. Miranda was on fire at the dish before going on the injured list before the All-Star break and has gone 6-for-20 (.300) with two doubles and an RBI in six games since coming off the IL on July 27. Lee started in 24 straight games after his first big-league call-up but will head to the bench for the second straight day. The 23-year-old has gone 4-for-23 (.174) since Miranda returned from the IL and will need to start swinging a hotter bat to hold off Martin at second base.
The Minnesota Twins welcome back third baseman Jose Miranda (head), who will bat cleanup in Tuesday's game against the New York Mets and left-hander Sean Manaea. Miranda was hit in the head with a 95 mph fastball in Sunday's win over the Detroit Tigers and was able to pass preliminary concussion tests. He is batting .324/.367/.517 with nine homers, 43 RBI, 35 runs scored, and two stolen bases in three attempts. Given the way that Miranda has swung the bat this month, fantasy managers need to get him back in their starting lineups now that he's back.
