Minnesota Twins Activate Carlos Correa From Concussion Injured List
- The Minnesota Twins reinstated shortstop Carlos Correa from the 7-day concussion injured list on Friday as they prepare for a home series against the Kansas City Royals.
- Correa suffered a concussion after colliding head-to-head with center fielder Byron Buxton on May 15 in Baltimore, which forced both players out of the game and onto concussion lists.
- At 30 years old, Correa had struggled offensively this season, compiling a.605 OPS with a total of eight doubles and a pair of home runs across 41 games before sustaining his injury; until the collision, he had not missed any playing time due to injury.
- To open a roster spot for Carlos Correa, the Twins optioned Ryan Fitzgerald to their Triple-A affiliate; Correa's absence was limited to five games mostly due to a rainout, while Byron Buxton continues to work through concussion protocol but has begun batting practice as he recovers.
- Correa’s timely return supports the Twins, who hold a 27-22 record and are close to the Royals in the AL Central standings, suggesting his health is key amid mounting injuries for the team.
