Joey Gallo On The Bench Thursday
1 year agoMinnesota Twins outfielder/first baseman Joey Gallo is not in the starting lineup Thursday versus the Tigers and left-hander Matthew Boyd. Gallo returned from the injured list on Tuesday and has gone 2-for-6 with a double, two walks, and an RBI over the last two days but will get a breather against the southpaw on Thursday. The veteran has managed to bounce back after a tough 2022 campaign, slugging 11 home runs alongside a 15.6% BB% and an .808 OPS across 173 trips to the plate in his first season with the Twins. However, he's still striking out in 36.4% of his plate appearances, right in line with his 37.2% career mark, which continues to put a cap on his fantasy upside in points leagues.
