MEDICAL WATCH:
SS Adam Everett (sore right shoulder) is batting a sore shoulder but is not being held out. Everett was on the DL earlier this season with a similar injury. CF Carlos Gomez (sore right wrist) asked out of the lineup May 17-18. He injured his wrist crashing into the outfield wall to record the final out in the May 16 game at Colorado. Manager Rod Gardenhire hinted that the injury could mean a DL stint for Gomez.
INF Matt Tolbert (torn ligaments in left thumb) was injured on the last play of the game May 15 and was placed on the disabled list the next day. He was expected to be out considerably longer than the 15-day DL stint.
INF Nick Punto (strained left hamstring) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to May 8. He could return by May 25.
RHP Pat Neshek (torn right elbow ligament) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to May 9. He is likely out for the season.
RHP Scott Baker (mild right groin strain) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to May 4. He experienced tightness in a bullpen session May 13, delaying his return. He threw a bullpen session May 15, but the groin bothered him again, and he will throw only light bullpen sessions until the groin pain is gone.
