Friday, the Minnesota Twins announced the team has reinstated outfielder Kyle Garlick.
The team reinstated him from being on the 10-day injured list.
Garlick missed the Twins’ last 21 games with a right ribcage contusion. The team stated he played in two rehab games with Triple-A St. Paul, going 1-for-7, with one walk.
Garlick has hit .257 (27-for-105) with three doubles, eight home runs, 18 runs scored, 17 RBI, a .319 on-base percentage and an .833 OPS in 51 games for the Twins this season, according to the team.
To make room for Garlick on the 26-man roster, the Twins have designated infielder Tim Beckham for release or assignment.
Beckham played in 12 games for the Twins since joining the team on July 30, going 2-for-25 with one RBI and one run scored, according to the team.
