Twins' Alex Kirilloff lands on 10-day IL with shoulder injury

The Minnesota Twins have placed outfielder/first baseman Alex Kirilloff on the 10-day injured list due to a right shoulder strain, while reinstating left-handed pitcher Caleb Thielbar from the 15-day injured list. Kirilloff has been hitting .270 with 13 doubles, eight home runs, and 32 RBIs this season. Thielbar, in his seventh season with the Twins, had been sidelined with a right oblique strain but has since made two scoreless rehab appearances. The Twins currently hold the top spot in the American League Central, 1½ games ahead of the Cleveland Guardians.

"Matt McLain's MLB Debut Sparks Waiver Wire Rush and Roster Changes for Reds"

Matt McLain, James Paxton, Alex Kirilloff, Nick Anderson, and Nick Senzel are all widely available players in Yahoo Fantasy Baseball formats that may be worth adding to your team. McLain is expected to be called up by Cincinnati and has power/speed upside in a hitter-friendly park. Paxton is a clear injury risk but has shown dominant stuff in his season debut. Kirilloff is settling in as Minnesota’s first baseman and has looked great since returning from wrist surgery. Anderson is a sneaky stash for saves on an Atlanta team that should provide many opportunities. Senzel has been a bust in the past but has real fantasy upside and is eligible at third base and outfield.

Twins recall top prospect Alex Kirilloff, shuffle injured list.

The Minnesota Twins made several roster moves before their game against Cleveland, including calling up Alex Kirilloff from Triple-A St. Paul and placing Caleb Thielbar on the injured list. Kirilloff was swapped in for Trevor Larnach, who was optioned to St. Paul. Thielbar's injury leaves a hole in the Twins' bullpen, with rookie Jovani Moran now the lone left-hander. Dereck Rodríguez was also called up from St. Paul to provide a long-relief option. Tyler Mahle was transferred to the 60-day injured list as he rehabs a strained elbow.

Twins shuffle roster, recall Kirilloff and Rodríguez while placing Thielbar on IL.

The Minnesota Twins have selected Dereck Rodríguez and recalled Alex Kirilloff from Triple-A St. Paul, while outfielder Trevor Larnach was optioned to Triple-A and left-hander Caleb Thielbar was placed on the 15-day injured list. Rodríguez, who has a 4.66 ERA in 19 1/3 Triple-A innings this year, will give the club a fresh arm, while Kirilloff, who is hitting .300/.426/.580 through 14 minor league games, will get a chance to see if he can bring any of that up to the majors.

Byron Buxton's three-run homer helped the Minnesota Twins to an 8-4 win over the Kansas City Royals, completing a series victory. The Twins' home run celebration, "Land of 10,000 Rakes," was unveiled, featuring a fishing vest and a plastic "Paw Patrol" fishing pole. The team's offense has improved with the help of the long ball, hitting a homer in 13 straight games. Starting pitcher Sonny Gray dominated Kansas City for six innings, ending April as the American League ERA leader. Tyler Mahle will be shut down from throwing for four weeks due to elbow-related injuries, and Alex Kirilloff was activated from the injured list and optioned to Triple-A St. Paul.

Maeda's injury impacts Twins in loss to Red Sox.

X-rays were negative on Kenta Maeda’s left ankle after being hit by a line drive, but it's unclear if he'll require a stint on the injured list. Bailey Ober will start on Sunday, pushing back the Twins' rotation and giving Maeda more time to recover. Alex Kirilloff is nearing the end of his rehab assignment, but some team officials feel he won't immediately join the Twins' big league roster once activated from the IL. Byron Buxton has yet to play in the field this season, and manager Rocco Baldelli doesn't know when or if he'll be back in the outfield.

Twins' Kirilloff and Polanco injuries lead to lineup changes.

Minnesota Twins' Alex Kirilloff and Jorge Polanco are expected to start the season on the injured list, paving the way for Trevor Larnach and non-roster invitee Will Castro to make the Opening Day roster. Kirilloff underwent season-ending wrist surgery last August and has been working on strength and confidence this spring, while Polanco missed 58 games last season with a bone bruise. Larnach homered and went 4-for-4 in Wednesday's win over the Boston Red Sox, while Castro is coming off the best spring performance of his career.

Twins' Polanco and Kirilloff sidelined for season start.

Minnesota Twins' second baseman Jorge Polanco and corner outfielder/first baseman Alex Kirilloff will start the season on the 10-day injured list. Polanco has been dealing with a left knee issue, while Kirilloff has a history of right wrist problems. Utility player Nick Gordon and veteran infielder Donovan Solano are among the options to fill in for the injured players. Kirilloff had been the favorite for the season-opening first base job, which could now fall to Solano and Joey Gallo.

Twins Face Early Injury Woes.

While Byron Buxton seems to be healthy and on track for the start of the season, the Minnesota Twins are facing injury concerns with several key players, including Jorge Polanco, who is doubtful for Opening Day, and Alex Kirilloff, whose status remains in doubt as he works back from a second wrist surgery. Additionally, Max Kepler exited an exhibition game with left hip tightness, and Tyler Mahle's velocity and Kenta Maeda's spring results are causing unsubstantiated anxieties. Twins fans are hoping for more good news before the start of the season.
