Blue Jays' Ty France: Drives in two in Friday's win
France went 2-for-4 with two RBI in Friday's win over the Marlins.
Getting the start at first base in place of Vladimir Guerrero (hamstring) and batting sixth, France rapped a two-run single in the first inning. He's started three straight games, going 3-for-10, but Guerrero could rejoin the starting nine as soon as Saturday, bumping France back into a bench role. Over 54 plate appearances since being acquired from the Twins at the trade deadline, France is slashing .327/.389/.429, but he's still looking for his first homer in a Blue Jays uniform.

Blue Jays' Ty France: Losing out on playing time
France is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers.
On the bench for the fourth time in five games, France appears to have settled into a part-time role following George Springer's return from the 7-day injured list. Expect most of France's playing time to come against left-handed pitching with the Blue Jays roster at full strength.

Blue Jays' Ty France: Back in starting nine Thursday
France will start at first base and bat fifth in Thursday's game against the Cubs.
Before being excluded from the lineup for Wednesday's 4-1 loss, France had started in each of the Blue Jays' previous six contests and went 10-for-22 with five doubles, one walk, five runs and two RBI. Though he's gotten off to a nice start to his tenure with the Blue Jays after being acquired from the Twins on July 31, France could fade into more of a part-time role once the Blue Jays get George Springer (concussion) back from the 7-day injured list.

Blue Jays' Ty France: Three doubles in Wednesday's rout
France went 4-for-4 with three doubles, four runs scored and an RBI in Wednesday's win over the Rockies.
The Blue Jays wrapped up a record-setting series with a 20-1 rout, and France was right in the thick of the fireworks. The 31-year-old has three multi-hit performances in 14 games since the All-Star break, with the first two coming as a member of the Twins, and France is slashing .311/.415/.444 over that stretch with six doubles, three RBI and nine runs. Based on his usage since being traded to the Blue Jays, his main role over the final weeks of the season will be to handle first base against left-handed pitchers while Vladimir Guerrero slides over to designated hitter.

Blue Jays' Ty France: Exiting starting nine Sunday
France is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.
After being acquired from the Twins on Thursday, France picked up starts at designated hitter and first base in the first two games of the Blue Jays' series with the Royals, going 1-for-8 at the plate. Though he'll hit the bench Sunday while Nathan Lukes gets a day off from playing the outfield and serves as Toronto's DH, France should have a fairly clear path to regular at-bats until the Blue Jays get one or two of George Springer (concussion), Andres Gimenez (ankle) and Anthony Santander (shoulder) back from the injured list.

Blue Jays' Ty France: Hitless in Jays debut
France went 0-for-4 with a strikeout in Friday's loss to the Royals.
With George Springer (concussion) on the shelf, France got the start at DH and batted sixth in his Blue Jays debut after being acquired from the Twins at the trade deadline. The 31-year-old could see regular at-bats in the short term, but once Springer is back, France will likely find himself on the bench most days, providing depth at first base behind Vladimir Guerrero and getting some short-side platoon work at DH. Through 391 plate appearances this season, France has a mediocre .249/.317/.353 with six homers and 44 RBI.

Blue Jays' Ty France: Heading to Toronto
The Blue Jays acquired France and Louis Varland from the Twins on Thursday in exchange for Alan Roden and Kendry Rojas, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports.
France has been more of a part-time lineup presence for the Twins lately, but the organization still found a way to offload him at the deadline. The 31-year-old has a .251/.320/.357 slash line in 101 games this season and isn't likely to have a significant role with the first-place Blue Jays.

Twins' Ty France: Heading to bench Wednesday
France is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.
Byron Buxton's injured ribcage has indirectly reopened more playing time of late for France, who had started in six of the previous seven games while going 7-for-19 with three doubles, four walks, three runs and two RBI. France is on an expiring deal and doesn't fit into the Twins' long-term plans, so the 31-year-old could be a candidate to be dealt elsewhere ahead of Thursday's deadline. With France out of the lineup for the final game before the deadline, Kody Clemens will shift back over to first base after making his previous two starts at second base.

Twins' Ty France: Gets on base four times
France went 2-for-3 with two doubles, two walks, one RBI and three runs scored in Tuesday's 10-7 win over the Dodgers.
France had a strong game from the No. 5 spot in the order, posting his first multi-hit effort since June 26 versus the Mariners. The first baseman has gone just 5-for-36 (.139) with three walks and seven strikeouts over 13 games in July, which has seen him slip into a fairly even timeshare with Kody Clemens at first base. Luckily for France, a righty, it hasn't become a straight platoon -- he's been in the lineup against three of the last seven right-handed starters the Twins have faced. For the season, France has a .249/.316/.357 slash line, six home runs, 43 RBI, 41 runs scored, 18 doubles and one stolen base across 367 plate appearances. Both France and Clemens could be at risk of losing playing time when Luke Keaschall (forearm) returns from the 60-day injured list, though Keaschall is expected to be more of a utility option once healthy.

Twins' Ty France: Fading into part-time role
France is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Cubs.
The right-handed-hitting France will head to the bench for the third time in the Twins' last four matchups with right-handed pitchers, as the left-handed-hitting Kody Clemens gets the nod at first base with righty Colin Rea on the hill for the Cubs. Clemens and France could be part of a loose platoon moving forward, though neither player has been especially productive in recent weeks. Dating back to June 20, France has delivered a .563 OPS, while Clemens has posted a .640 OPS over that same timeframe.

Twins' Ty France: Losing starts to Clemens
France is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.
For the second day in a row, France will head to the bench against a righty starter in Drew Rasmussen. The Twins haven't indicated that France is dealing with an injury, so he could simply be moving into the short side of a platoon at first base with the left-handed-hitting Kody Clemens. Since his six-game hitting streak came to an end June 7, France is slashing a woeful .209/.269/.337 with two home runs, 10 runs and nine RBI over 26 games.

Twins' Ty France: Exiting starting nine Wednesday
France is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.
France has served as the Twins' everyday first baseman throughout the season, but his stranglehold on that role could be slipping a bit. He'll hit the bench for the second time in the five games while he's slashed just .185/.241/.315 over a stretch of 14 contests dating back to June 14. Kody Clemens will step in for France at first base and will bat eighth.

Twins' Ty France: Resting Friday
France is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Tigers.
France will get the night off Friday after making six consecutive starts at first base. In his place, Kody Clemens will start at first base and bat seventh.

Twins' Ty France: Ends power drought
France went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 10-3 loss to the Astros.
The first baseman got hold of a Steven Okert slider in the ninth inning, on a night when all of Minnesota's offense came on solo homers. It was France's fifth long ball of the year and his first since May 23, ending an 18-game drought, but he stayed productive despite the lack of power by batting .338 (23-for-68) with nine runs and 10 RBI during that stretch.

Twins' Ty France: Sitting Saturday
France is not in Minnesota's starting lineup against Seattle on Saturday.
France is in the midst of an eight-game hitting streak, going 9-for-32 (.281) with one home run and seven RBI over that span. He'll begin Saturday's game in the dugout while Kody Clemens starts at first base and bats seventh.

Twins' Ty France: Out of Minnesota lineup
France is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Guardians.
France participated in the conclusion of a suspended game earlier in the day, but he'll begin Wednesday's regularly scheduled tilt on the bench. Jonah Bride will handle first base and bat fifth for the Twins.

Twins' Ty France: Rejoining lineup Friday
France (foot) is starting at first base and batting cleanup Friday against the Brewers.
France sat the previous two contests after suffering a foot injury in Game 1 of Wednesday's doubleheader, but he's back in action for Friday's series opener in Milwaukee. After posting a .745 OPS in his first 31 games of the year, France has struggled so far in May with a .217 average (10-for-46) and just two extra-base hits in 12 contests.
