Twins' third baseman Trevor Plouffe is eligible to come off the disabled list Saturday, but he won't be joining the team anytime soon. A bruised bone in his right thumb still causes him pain when swings a bat, and it doesn't sound like he'll be ready until at least late next week.
Twins' third baseman Trevor Plouffe has missed a week of games because of a jammed thumb, and it nearly sent him to the disabled list. But he announced on Twitter that it looks like he'll be back on the field Friday for the series opener against the Cleveland Indians.
A bruised thumb forced Twins third-baseman Trevor Plouffe to miss a third straight game Monday night. He tried to take a couple of swings but was shut down after feeling discomfort. If he can’t play soon, he could land on the disabled list, paving the way for the possible return of Danny Valencia.
Justin Morneau stayed hot with another home run, but the Twins were unable to end their losing streak, falling to the surging Tampa Bay Rays 7-3 in 10 innings. Denard Span left the game early after hurting his shoulder while attempting a diving catch.
Trevor Plouffe hasn't hit a home run since coming off the disabled list after hurting his thumb in July. While the Twins say he has all the tools to bounce back, the Star Tribune reports GM Terry Ryan wants Plouffe to "step up."
He says he isn't "counting the days just yet", but Twins prospect Kyle Gibson is looking forward to throwing off a mound for the first time since undergoing Tommy John surgery last year. Gibson hopes to throw from a mound on June 7. He could return to game action in early August.
The Twins placed Trevor Plouffe on the 15 day disabled list Friday night. He was initially in the lineup, but scratched after his bruised thumb acted up on him during batting practice. The move is retroactive to July 21. Filling the roster spot is Danny Valencia, who was hitting .250 with 7 home runs and 37 RBI at AAA-Rochester.
