Luis Arraez, Byron Buxton and Max Kepler are back in the Twins batting order for the game.
The Twins will need to make some postgame moves before they fly to Toronto for a three-game series against the Blue Jays. Some Twins players are not vaccinated and won't be able to enter Canada, so the team has a taxi squad in Detroit. One of those taxi squad players, shortstop Jermaine Palacios, will play in four consecutive games after being activated when Carlos Correa came down with COVID-19.
Archer, signed in spring training as a bit of a reclamation project, lost to the Royals on Saturday at Target Field, giving up five runs in four innings. He had only one strikeout.
At 30-22, the Twins lead the American League Central by five games over second-place Chicago.
