Matt Wallner's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Minnesota Twins outfielder Matt Wallner homered for the second straight game in Wednesday's 6-4 win over the Angels. It was his only hit of the day, going 1-for-4 at the plate, but it was his 13th home run of the season in just 184 at-bats and he's slashing .289/.396/.623 since his return from the minors in July. He also bashed 19 home runs at Triple-A, giving him 32 home runs on the season overall, but the problem is that the left-handed hitter doesn't play much against left-handed pitching which makes him frustrating for season-long fantasy. Nevertheless, with a 20.0% barrel rate, there are surely more to come before the season is out, so managers in need of pop during the fantasy playoffs could consider him and he's usually going to be in play against right-handed pitching for DFS.

Minnesota Twins outfielder Matt Wallner hit his 10th homer in Monday's 10-6 loss to the Atlanta Braves, part of a 2-for-3 evening, including two runs scored. Wallner is hitting .271/.403/.612 with 26 RBI, 21 runs scored, and three stolen bases on the year. Daily fantasy managers should make Wallner a priority when facing right-handers, as he's hitting .277/.408/.625 with nine homers, and 24 RBI against him. He has been a solid fantasy asset over the last month and is a must-start in leagues that use on-base percentage as a category.

Minnesota Twins outfielder Matt Wallner had a big night in his team's 6-3 win over the Cleveland Guardians in Game 2 of a Friday doubleheader. Wallner went 1-for-3 with a three-run homer to help power his team to the win. The 26-year-old's homer was a clutch one as the Twins were down 3-2 in the fifth inning when he launched the blast. Wallner is now hitting .274 with seven homers, 13 runs, 18 RBI, and one steal across 84 at-bats this season. He will look to carve out a more regular role moving forward.
