Minnesota Twins utility man Willi Castro (wrist) is back in the starting lineup for Wednesday’s game against the visiting Seattle Mariners and right-hander George Kirby, playing third base and batting third in the order at Target Field. Castro is back in the lineup after a sore right wrist kept him sidelined for the previous three contests. The 28-year-old entered Tuesday’s game as a defensive replacement at second base and went 0-for-2 at the plate, so it’s not a surprise that he’s back in the starting lineup. The Puerto Rican utility man is in a nice lineup spot for DFS sleeper appeal, and he’s hit .333 with a home run and three RBI in a small sample size of nine career at-bats against Kirby. Between third and second base, Castro should be a lineup regular for Minnesota moving forward with Royce Lewis (hamstring) on the injured list.–Keith Hernandez
