  • Jake Fraley (hand) ready to return to action

  • Starting Friday
    Taylor will start in left field and bat seventh Friday against Cincinnati.

    Advice: Taylor has seen his playing time dwindle in the past month as Andy Pages leapfrogged Taylor on the depth chart and Jason Heyward returned from injury. He's slashing .097/.219/.097 with 30 strikeouts in 74 plate appearances this season. Rotowire.com 13 minutes ago

  • Royce Lewis (quad) heads out on rehab assignment
    Royce Lewis (quad) will begin a minor league rehab assignment at Triple-A St. Paul on Saturday.

    Advice: The dynamic 24-year-old has been shelved since suffering his quad injury while running the bases on Opening Day. He should only need a couple of games there to get his timing back before rejoining the Twins’ lineup. He has always been able to produce when he’s in the lineup, but staying off of the injured list has proven to be quite difficult for Lewis early on in his career. Rotoworld 16 minutes ago
