Pitcher Randy Dobnak is the latest Minnesota Twin to be shelved due to injury.
The Twins announced Thursday that Dobnak was placed on the 10-day Injured List with a right middle finger strain, retroactive to June 21.
Over 13 games this season, Dobnak has a record of 1-6 with a 7.83 ERA.
To take his roster spot, the club recalled pitcher Griffin Jax from Triple-A St. Paul.
Jax made his MLB debut on June 8 and posted an 8.64 ERA over 8.1 innings in his first stint with the Twins.
