He's still holding down a regular role at third base with a steady .260/.315/.400 slash line, six homers, 29 RBI, 27 runs scored, 10 doubles and a triple through 63 contests overall.

Not starting Saturday Urshela (foot) isn't starting Saturday against the Blue Jays.

Impact Urshela was removed from Friday's win over the Blue Jays due to a sprain in the mid-arch of his right foot, and he'll be out of the lineup a day later. The 30-year-old is considered day-to-day for now, but Jose Miranda will start at the hot corner and bat fifth Saturday.

Knocks three hits Urshela went 3-for-4 with a homer, a double, two runs scored and two RBI in Monday's loss to Detroit.

Impact Urshela knocked a solo home run off of Beau Brieske in the sixth inning and added an RBI double in the eighth. The 30-year-old has produced three hits on three occasions over his last seven games, boosting his season slash line to .272/.331/.401 through 166 plate appearances. During that seven-game stretch, Urshela is hitting .414 with three extra-base hits and eight RBI.

Three hits in win Urshela went 3-for-4 with an RBI in Tuesday's victory over the Tigers.

Impact Urshela notched an RBI single off Beau Brieske in the bottom of the second inning, driving in Max Kepler. He later added two more singles, notching his second multi-hit contest of the month and first since May 14. The third baseman has secured at least one hit in five of his last six games, batting .438 with five RBI in those contests. If he can maintain this level of production moving forward, he could see himself reinstated closer to the top of the batting order later this season.

Day off Tuesday Urshela will sit Tuesday against Oakland.

Impact Urshela has held onto regular playing time even after the arrival of rookies Jose Miranda and Royce Lewis, but the Twins' infield will get crowded once Carlos Correa (finger) returns from the injured list, which is expected to happen soon. Urshela's .226/.280/.330 slash line doesn't make the best case for an everyday role, but his past track record could still keep him in the lineup on a regular basis until he turns things around at the plate. Miranda will be the one to start at the hot corner Tuesday.
