Brent Headrick - Rejoins big club Headrick was recalled from Triple-A St. Paul on Sunday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.
Impact Headrick has spent the past month at Triple-A but will rejoin the major-league roster for Sunday's series finale versus Arizona. The left-hander has a 5.40 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 18:7 K:BB over 15 innings for Minnesota this season.

Michael A. Taylor - Riding three-game home-run streak Taylor will start in center field and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.
Impact Taylor will take a five-game hitting streak into Sunday's series finale, with the 32-year-old having delivered home runs in the last three contests. Thanks to his hot bat and plus defense, Taylor appears to have reclaimed the center field job from Willi Castro, who has transitioned back into a utility role.

Jovani Moran - Sent to minors Moran was optioned to Triple-A St. Paul on Sunday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.
Impact Moran recorded nine holds early in the season for Minnesota but will head down to Triple-A after giving up six runs in his past four outings. Brent Headrick was recalled from St. Paul in a corresponding move.

Matt Wallner - Collects three hits in rout Wallner went 3-for-5 with a double, two runs and two RBI against the Diamondbacks in Saturday's 12-1 victory.
Impact Wallner enjoyed his sixth multi-hit game of the campaign and his first since he belted two homers against Seattle on July 26. Five of his past six hits (covering a nine-game span) had left the park coming into Saturday, but the 25-year-old was able to be productive without going deep against Arizona. Wallner pushed his season slash line to a strong .269/.387/.551 through 93 plate appearances on the campaign, and he's tallied six homers, four doubles, 14 RBI, 15 runs and a theft thus far.

Max Kepler - Logs three hits, including homer Kepler went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored Saturday in a 12-1 victory versus Arizona.
Impact Kepler launched a 435-foot solo shot to center field in the sixth inning that gave the Twins a 10-1 lead. It was his second straight contest with a long ball, and the veteran outfielder has gone deep five times over 21 games since the All-Star break. Kepler is batting .320 (24-for-75) with 11 RBI and 16 runs over that stretch.

Ryan Jeffers - Launches two long balls Jeffers went 3-for-4 with a pair of home runs, a double and four total RBI in a 12-1 rout of the Diamondbacks on Saturday.
Impact Jeffers' big offensive game included a two-run homer in the second inning, a run-scoring double in the third and a solo shot in the fifth. The backstop has gone deep three times in his past two contests, driving in six runs over that stretch. Jeffers remains in a timeshare with Christian Vazquez behind the plate, but the former's hot bat may result in him being in the lineup more often. Since the All-Star break, Jeffers is batting .421 (16-for-38) with four homers, nine runs, 11 RBI and three stolen bases over 13 contests.

Kenta Maeda - Breezes to victory Saturday Maeda (3-6) earned the win over Arizona on Saturday, allowing one run on two hits and no walks while striking out seven batters over six innings.
Impact Maeda fell behind 1-0 in the second inning, but the Twins responded with an offensive outburst to go ahead 10-1 by the end of the sixth. The veteran hurler kept the Diamondbacks from countering, as he retired the final 14 batters he faced. Maeda struggled in his first start following the All-Star break, giving up three runs in three innings against Oakland. Since then, he's allowed two or fewer runs in each of his subsequent four outings, posting a 2.28 ERA and 31:4 over 23.2 frames during that span.
