Scores both runs in lossBradley went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and two runs scored in Sunday's 8-2 loss to the Twins.
ImpactBradley got aboard on an error in the second inning and scored on Manny Pina's sacrifice fly. In the sixth, Bradley added a solo shot. The 30-year-old outfielder is in contention for playing time in center field and right field, but Lorenzo Cain and Avisail Garcia are in the mix as well. Bradley will get his chances in 2021, but it may come down to matchups as to when he plays. His homer Sunday was his first hit of the year.

Allows two runs in lossHouser (0-1) gave up two runs on four hits and two walks over five innings in a loss to the Twins on Sunday. He struck out four.
ImpactHouser was just decent in his season debut. The Twins played some small ball to scrape together a run in the first, and Mitch Garver added a solo shot in the fifth on Houser's watch. The 28-year-old right-hander enters 2021 with a shaky grasp on a spot in the rotation after he posted a 5.30 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 44:21 K:BB across 56 innings in 2020. Houser will need to tighten things up on the mound or else risk a demotion to the bullpen. He lines up for his next start Saturday in St. Louis.

On base five times SundayArraez went 3-for-3 with a double, a pair of walks and a run scored in Sunday's 8-2 win over the Brewers.
ImpactArraez got on base in each of his plate appearances. In the sixth inning, he drew a walk, moved to second on an error, advanced to third on a wild pitch and scored on Max Kepler's two-run single. Arraez has posted an on-base percentage of .600 through the first three games of the year. That mark will come down, but he got aboard at a .364 clip in 2020. He's not speedy, but hitting leadoff should help Arraez post a decent run total over the course of the campaign.
