Michael Tonkin Placed on 60-Day Injured List Due to Right Rotator Cuff Injury for Minnesota Twins
Michael Tonkin of the Minnesota Twins is out with a right rotator cuff injury and has been placed on the 60-day injured list.
What It Means
Michael Tonkin's placement on the 60-day injured list follows previous issues with his right rotator cuff earlier in the season. He had been sidelined since March, which affected his ability to contribute to the team's games. This ongoing injury means Tonkin has not played in any games or recorded stats for the current season.
With Tonkin out, other relief pitchers like Louis Varland and Danny Coulombe might see more time on the mound. The Twins have a game against the Milwaukee Brewers at American Family Field, and the absence of Tonkin could impact the bullpen depth in upcoming games. This change in the roster may affect how the team manages its pitching strategy.
