Overview

  • On Saturday, June 14, the Twins placed third baseman Royce Lewis on the 10-day injured list due to a left hamstring strain.
  • The injury occurred when he pulled up running to first base on a ninth-inning single during Friday’s 10-3 loss to the Houston Astros.
  • An MRI on Saturday will guide the club’s medical staff in determining the length of his absence and rehab timeline.
  • This is his second strain of the same hamstring this season, following a 35-game absence earlier in 2025.
  • The Twins are expected to use in-house alternatives such as Jose Miranda, Brooks Lee, Edouard Julien and utility player Willi Castro at third base.
