Notes
- Nick Cafardo, notorious for source-less and hunch-based opinions, thinks Ron Gardenhire could be earning a mid-season extension by the team's better than expected play so far this season. Whether it's in the middle of the season or sometime after this season is over, I do expect Gardy to get a new contract - so in this case, I actually agree with Cafardo.
- Darin Mastroianni won't be ready to return to the Twins for a little while yet. Looks like Oswaldo Arcia will stick around for at least a little while longer.
