Ryan Jeffers Taking The Day Off On Tuesday
Ryan Jeffers is getting the day off on Tuesday as the team faces the division-rival Cleveland Guardians at Progressive Field. Christian Vazquez will do the catching for right-hander Chris Paddack while batting ninth against Guardians right-hander Tanner Bibee. The Twins announced last weekend that Jeffers would be their primary backstop over Vazquez going forward after the two essentially split the catching duties down the middle the previous two seasons. While Jeffers is by no means an offensive superstar, he definitely provides more thump with the bat than Vazquez and is hitting .257 (19-for-74) on the year with a homer, 10 RBI and seven runs scored. Meanwhile, Vazquez has gone 5-for-36 (.139) and has yet to homer in 2025. Fantasy managers should look elsewhere at catcher for DFS lineups than Vazquez.
