    • Getting MRI on knee
      Buxton will receive an MRI on his right knee after being removed from Wednesday's 10-5 win over the White Sox, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

      Advice: Buxton hurt his knee while attempting to steal a base during the second inning of Wednesday's victory. The Twins didn't have an update on his status immediately after the game, but manager Rocco Baldelli said Buxton would receive an MRI, adding that the team would use its day off Thursday to assess the situation. A clearer picture regarding the 30-year-old's return timeline will likely become available prior to Friday's game against Boston. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:05 pm
       
    • Byron Buxton (knee) will undergo MRI
      Byron Buxton will undergo an MRI exam on his injured right knee after leaving Wednesday’s game against the White Sox.

      Advice: Buxton pulled up on a stolen base attempt during the game and had to be helped off the field. It looks likely that the oft-injured outfielder is heading to the injured list once again, but the Twins will wait and see what the imaging shows before addressing the situation publicly.

    • Dealing with knee injury
      Buxton was removed in the second inning of Wednesday's game against the White Sox was due to right knee soreness, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Buxton tweaked his knee on a stolen-base attempt in the top of the second inning and was removed in the bottom half of the frame. The injury is to the same knee in which he underwent surgery twice, with the most recent operation occurring last October. It's not clear at this point how big of a setback Buxton might be dealing with, but the Twins could offer more detail on his condition after the game. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:44 pm
       
    • Byron Buxton dealing with right knee soreness
      Twins announced Byron Buxton is dealing with right knee soreness after he exited Wednesday’s game.

      Advice: Phew. It appears Buxton avoided any significant injury after he attempted to steal second base and came off the field in pain. Buxton can be considered day-to-day for the time being. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:38 pm
       
    • Heads to bench Wednesday
      Santander is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Yankees.

      Advice: Santander will get a breather after he had started each of Baltimore's last 13 games while posting an .886 OPS. The 29-year-old isn't at any risk of losing hold of an everyday role, but he'll cede his spot in the lineup Wednesday to rookie Heston Kjerstad, who has played sparingly since being called up from Triple-A Norfolk on April 23.

    • Exits with apparent leg injury
      Buxton was removed from Wednesday's game against the White Sox in the bottom of the second inning with an apparent leg injury, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

      Advice: After reaching on a base hit in his first plate appearance of the day in the top of the second inning, Buxton attempted a steal of second base but came up lame and walked off the field gingerly after being tagged out. The Twins should have more clarity on the nature of Buxton's injury later Wednesday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:57 am
       
    • Byron Buxton exits game with apparent injury
      Byron Buxton left Wednesday’s game with an injury after he attempted to steal second base.

      Advice: Buxton went into second base standing up and appeared to favor his leg when he got caught stealing. He tapped his leg as he came off the field and a trainer met him at the foul line to check him out. We’ll have to wait on more information from the team to see if there’s anything significant.

    • Pops two homers Tuesday
      Greene went 4-for-9 with a double, two home runs and three total RBI across both games of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Cardinals.

      Advice: Greene provided all of Detroit's offense with a solo home run in the first game Tuesday, a 2-1 loss, but he really got going in the nightcap. He collected three hits in the 11-6 win, including a double and another homer, his seventh of the season. The talented young outfielder has pushed his OPS up to a robust .912, and the sky is the limit for Greene the rest of the way if he manages to stay healthy. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 7:37 pm
       
    • Riley Greene homers in both games of doubleheader
      Riley Greene went 3-for-5 with a solo homer and two RBI to lead the Tigers to an 11-6 win over the Cardinals in the second game of Tuesday’s doubleheader.

      Advice: Greene homered in both games of Tuesday’s twin bill at Comerica Park and is now up to seven round-trippers on the season. The 23-year-old former top prospect bashed a seventh-inning solo shot off reliever Giovanny Gallegos in the nightcap affair after taking veteran Kyle Gibson deep in the front end of the doubleheader. He’s been a certifiable on-base machine this season and appears to be finally putting it all together at the dish after struggling to stay healthy the last few years. Rotoworld Tuesday, 6:55 pm
