The Minnesota Twins place outfielder Byron Buxton on the 10-day injured list with a right hip impingement, ahead of Sunday’s game against the Chicago White Sox. The move comes after the hip issue continues to affect his availability.
The Twins also call up outfielder Gabriel Gonzalez from Triple-A St. Paul to take Buxton’s roster spot. Twins manager Derek Shelton says the organization’s plan is for Buxton to return later this season, emphasizing rehabilitation and ongoing work toward being back.
Across outlets, the reporting is consistent on the designation and the cause: Buxton is sidelined by a right hip impingement and is assigned to the 10-day IL. While one outlet frames the situation as Buxton repeatedly landing on the injured list, the core details—injury type, roster move, opponent, and the team’s intent—match the same underlying facts.
