Louie Varland - Moving to bullpen Varland is expected to be used in a traditional relief role down the stretch, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.
Impact It had previously appeared as though the Twins were considering a quasi six-man rotation with Varland included as a bulk reliever, but he pitched his way out of that conversation in a hurry. Varland gave up eight runs on five hits and a walk over 2.1 innings against the Rays on Wednesday, bringing his ERA to 7.62 through 39 innings with the major-league team this season.

Willi Castro - Out of lineup Friday Castro is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Royals.
Impact Castro continues to operate in a near-everyday role for Minnesota between shortstop and center field. He's been in a bad way at the dish with just two hits in his last seven games, but for the year Castro's been worth close to three wins above replacement by fWAR.

Ryan Jeffers - Sitting Friday Jeffers is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Royals, aa reports.
Impact Jeffers will get what looks like a routine breather after three straight starts, including two starts behind the plate in the past three days. Christian Vazquez will catch for starting pitcher Zebby Matthews.

Matt Wallner - Smacks 11th home run Wallner went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Rays.
Impact Wallner took Taj Bradley deep in the third inning in what ended up being the winning run. Wallner has been a revelation for the Twins over the second half of the season and has become a mainstay in the middle of their lineup. Since being called up in early July, he's played in 45 of their last 51 games and is hitting .295 with a 1.017 OPS and 10 home runs over that span.

Jhoan Duran - Picks up 22nd save Duran got the save in Monday's 4-3 win over the Rays, striking out two in a perfect ninth inning.
Impact Duran entered the game to protect a one-run lead, and he struck out the first two batters he faced and then issued a weak grounder to end it. Following a rough stretch in August, Duran has been better as of late with four straight clean outings in which he's only allowed one hit and racked up four saves in the process. The 26-year-old closer is now 22-for-24 in save opportunities this season with a 3.45 ERA.

Edouard Julien - Hits first home run since April Julien went 1-for-4 with a three-run homer in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Rays.
Impact Julien took Taj Bradley deep in the second inning for his eighth home run of the season and his first since April 25. Julien's blast snapped a 54-game homerless streak, which was the longest of his career entering today. Since his most recent call-up in the middle of August, the 25-year-old is hitting .282 over 19 games, but his playing time is too inconsistent to trust in fantasy lineups.

Pablo López - Streak ends but gets 14th win Lopez (14-8) earned the win Thursday against the Rays, allowing three runs on seven hits and one walk over 6.2 innings. He struck out nine.
Impact Lopez's streak of three straight outings without allowing a run ended Thursday against the Rays, but he still managed to pick up his 14th win, which is tied for the third most in the American League. Lopez's scoreless innings streak ended at 23.1, which is the longest single-season streak by a Twins pitcher since Tyler Duffey in 2019. The 28-year-old has eight quality starts over his last 10 appearances and has a 2.27 ERA in that span.
