Slowey left Thursday night's win over the Chicago White Sox in the fourth inning after Uribe's hit slammed off the pitcher's right wrist. He was taken to the hospital for X-rays, which came back negative.
Slowey had the MRI on Friday and said it came back clear. But he isn't sure when he will be ready to pitch again.
The Twins lead the White Sox by a half-game in the AL Central heading into the final weekend. If a playoff is required, it likely would be played in Chicago on Tuesday, which would be Slowey's scheduled day to pitch.
