AUGUST 28, 2021 • THEATHLETIC.COM
Slated for season-ending surgery Maeda (forearm) will undergo season-ending surgery Wednesday, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.
Impact Maeda was evaluating several options after he sustained a forearm injury Saturday, but he'll ultimately opt for surgery. Manager Rocco Baldelli said Friday that he isn't yet sure what procedure the right-hander will undergo, but Tommy John surgery is on the table. Regardless of the type of procedure, Maeda won't pitch again until at least 2022.

Getting second opinion Maeda was sent for a second opinion on his forearm injury Tuesday, with the Twins concerned about potential UCL issues, Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports.
Impact Maeda hit the injured list Monday, but he's so far not been diagnosed with anything worse than forearm tightness. That could change following the second opinion, however. Any mention of UCL issues raises the specter of Tommy John surgery, though the Twins have yet to indicate that's on the table. Anything from a return within a few weeks to a return at the start of the 2023 season appears in play for Maeda at the moment.

Kenta Maeda goes on injured list with forearm tightness Miguel Sano will fill roster spot, but rotation spot is more difficult
AUGUST 23, 2021 • STARTRIBUNE.COM
Lands on injured list Maeda was placed on the injured list with right forearm tightness Monday, Brandon Warne of Access Twins reports.
Impact Maeda left his start Saturday against the Yankees with the injury, which was evidently serious enough to cost him at least one start. He's yet to be diagnosed with anything more serious than tightness, but it's unclear how much time the Twins expect him to miss.

Slated for additional testing Maeda (forearm) will undergo additional testing, Phil Miller of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Impact Maeda was charged with the loss against the Yankees on Saturday and was removed from the game in the bottom of the fifth inning due to his injury. Forearm issues can be cause for concern with pitchers, so it's not surprising that the right-hander will undergo testing, including an MRI. Manager Rocco Baldelli isn't yet sure how long Maeda will be sidelined, but a better idea of his return timetable likely won't be known until the results of his tests are known.

Exits with forearm tightness Maeda was removed from Saturday's game against the Yankees with right forearm tightness, Phil Miller of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Impact Maeda struggled early in Saturday's start, as he allowed five runs on four hits and a walk while striking out five in 4.1 innings prior to his removal. The right-hander had earned wins in each of his last two starts, and his injury likely contributed to his lackluster performance against the Yankees. It's not yet clear whether the issue will prompt a trip to the injured list, but the right-hander tentatively lines up to make his next start at home against the Brewers on Friday if he's deemed healthy enough to pitch.
