Buxton is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Royals.
The Twins will be lefty-heavy Saturday against righty Ian Kennedy, who is making his season debut after having his first start pushed back due to hamstring tightness. Buxton is always an option to come in as a pinch runner if the situation calls for it, but he shouldn't be counted upon in fantasy lineups Saturday. The switch-hitting Danny Santana will take Buxton's post in center field.
