2024 Fantasy Outlook
Julien finished seventh in the AL rookie of the year voting as he looks like a potential star for the Twins. Julien offers a mix of exceptional plate discipline and power. He had a .381 OBP and drew walks at a near league-leading 15.7% clip. He also hit 16 home runs with a .195 ISO and was in the 86th percentile for Barrel Rate. His playing time was limited by platoon issues and his defense, however. He hit just .195 with a .447 OPS against left-handed pitching. He also struggled at times at second base (-3 defensive runs saved) and was blocked by Jorge Polanco (when healthy) which led him to be used frequently at DH and even 1B. The Twins should find a spot for him in the everyday lineup against right-handed pitching and should get more exposure to left-handed pitching as he develops. Read Past Outlooks
On bench Monday vs. lefty
Julien is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Guardians.
ANALYSIS
The lefty-hitting Julien will remain on the bench for a second straight game, this time against a lefty (Matthew Boyd) after he was out of the lineup against Reds righty Rhett Lowder on Sunday. Julien should still see the bulk of the starts at second base until Max Kepler (knee) returns from the injured list, at which point super-utility man Willi Castro may see fewer opportunities in the outfield and instead find a home at the keystone.

Stat Review
How does Edouard Julien compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Julien generated a lot of dynasty-league buzz over the summer and fall of 2022, but he is a little divisive, as stat-based models love his combination of patience and above-average power, while traditional prospect rankings downgrade him. A 23-year-old lefty hitter from Quebec, Julien slashed .303/.443/.491 with a 24.6 K%, a 19.3 BB% and a strong 32.6 Hard% at Double-A. He then went to the Arizona Fall League and hit .400 with five home runs and more walks (23) than strikeouts (22) in 21 games. His lack of defensive utility means he has to kick the door down in order to get time at second base and designated hitter. Additionally, his below-average athleticism renders his 25 steals in 134 games between Double-A and the AFL nearly irrelevant. Julien will be more valuable in OBP leagues and his extreme patience will suppress his home run and RBI totals in the big leagues, but he still could earn a prime spot in a big-league lineup if he reaches his ceiling. The Twins have a lot of younger bat-first infield/DH types jockeying for playing time, but now that Julien is on the 40-man roster, he should get a chance sometime this summer.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Demotion possible?
Brandon Warne of Access Twins believes Julien could use a reset in the minors and is a logical option to be demoted when Royce Lewis is cleared to return from his quadriceps injury.
ANALYSIS
Lewis is in the midst of a rehab assignment at Triple-A St. Paul and should join the Twins in the near future, so a roster spot will need to be cleared up soon. Julien has batted leadoff for much of the season, but he has a .693 OPS overall and has especially struggled of late with just three hits in his past 27 at-bats. Willi Castro would likely take over as the primary second baseman should Julien be sent down.
