MILWAUKEE -- Rookie third baseman Danny Valencia returns to the lineup for the Twins tonight, as they face Brewers lefthander Chris Narveson in the opener of a three-game series at Miller Park.
Dave Bush was scheduled to make this start, but after watching him get pummeled by the Twins on May 21, the Brewers pushed his next start to Friday against Seattle.
Updates to come...
Update: Twins outfield prospect Ben Revere (Class AA New Britain) has been selected to play for the U.S. team in this year's All-Star Futures Game. Twins pitching prospect Liam Hendricks (Class A Fort Myers), of Perth, Australia, has been selected for the World Team.
Update: Alexi Casilla is making rapid progress on his recovery from right elbow surgery and could be ready to take batting practice with the Twins next week, when they return from the road, before going on a rehab assignment.
J.J. Hardy took some pain-free swings today in Minnesota. There is still no timetable for his return, though the Twins likely will want him to go on a rehab assignment to make sure he doesn't have another setback with his bruised left wrist.
