After missing five games with a knee injury, Byron Buxton is back in the Minnesota lineup for Thursday's matchup against the Royals in Kansas City.

Fantasy Impact:

Buxton left last Friday's game against the Red Sox after injuring his knee on a slide into second base, but he avoided serious injury and is able to return without a stint on the injured list. In seven games prior to the injury, Buxton was batting .250 with five runs scored, three home runs, four RBI, and one stolen base.
