Polanco started the season on the injured list while recovering from a leg injury suffered last season and played 23 games before returning to the IL last month. He is batting .284 with four home runs and an .811 OPS.
Edouard Julien, 7-for-35 in Polanco's absence, will rejoin the Class AAA Saints against the Bisons in Buffalo, N.Y., this weekend.
The Twins open a four-game series against the Guardians at Target Field tonight before going on a week-long road trip to Tampa Bay and Toronto.
Robust competition is likely for righthander Roki Sasaki, whose agent suggests a “smaller, midmarket” team might be a good route to take, but the Los Angeles Dodgers are said to be the favorites to land him.
