Twins' Byron Buxton Day-to-Day with Rib Cartilage Irritation
Minnesota Twins All-Star center fielder Byron Buxton is currently day-to-day with left rib cartilage irritation, confirmed by an MRI after he experienced soreness and was removed from a game against the Washington Nationals. Despite the injury, Buxton has avoided significant structural damage and is not expected to be placed on the injured list, with the Twins hopeful for his return to the lineup soon. Buxton has been a key contributor for the Twins this season, batting .282 with 23 home runs and maintaining a strong OPS of .905. Manager Rocco Baldelli described the situation as a positive outcome, emphasizing daily monitoring and treatment as Buxton recovers. Buxton's injury comes amid a challenging season for the Twins, who appear poised to sell at the trade deadline, though Buxton remains focused on finishing the season strong. Meanwhile, teammate Bailey Ober is expected to rejoin the rotation soon following his rehabilitation from a left hip impingement.
