Reinstated prior to start Pineda (forearm) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list ahead of Wednesday's start against the White Sox, Brandon Warne of Access Twins reports.

Impact Pineda had been sidelined with forearm inflammation since June 14, but he was able to keep throwing throughout most of his rehab process. He allowed five runs (four earned) on four hits and three walks while striking out one in four innings during his lone rehab start at Triple-A St. Paul on July 1, and he'll now return to the major-league club for a final start before the All-Star break. Right-hander Griffin Jax was sent down in a corresponding move.

Returning to start Wednesday Pineda (forearm) will be activated from the injured list and start Wednesday's game against the White Sox, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Impact The big righty has been out since June 14 with right forearm inflammation but will return to make one last start before the All-Star break. Pineda struggled in his May 13 outing against the White Sox, allowing two homers and three runs while walking three in 5.1 innings. Injuries have further depleted Chicago's lineup, though, so Pineda may find more success this time around.

Impact Pineda has been on the 10-day injured list since June 13 with right forearm inflammation. It's not clear if he'll need another rehab start or return to the Minnesota rotation next week. Given Minnesota's depth issues in the rotation, it wouldn't be a surprise to see him make his next start in the majors.

JUNE 29, 2021 • FANDUEL.COM

Rehab assignment starts up Thursday Pineda (forearm) will report to Triple-A St. Paul for a rehab start Thursday.

Impact Pineda has been on the 10-day injured list for just over two weeks with right forearm inflammation, so he'll likely only need to make one start in the minors before the Twins activate him. Assuming Thursday's outing goes smoothly, Pineda could slot back into the big-league rotation early next week, when the Twins take on the White Sox for a three-game home series. Minnesota will likely turn to Griffin Jax to serve as a spot starter or primary pitcher out of the bullpen when a replacement for Pineda is needed again this weekend in Kansas City.
