Buxton was removed from Monday's game against the Astros in the bottom of the sixth inning with a lacerated right ring finger, Phil Miller of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Buxton hurt the finger when it got caught in the spikes of teammate Eddie Rosario, who slid by Buxton attempting to make a catch. According to Mike Berardino of the St. Paul Pioneer Press, the Twins don't view Buxton's injury as anything serious, so the 23-year-old could be back in the lineup Tuesday if he's able to complete batting practice without incident. Ehire Adrianza ended up replacing Buxton in Monday's contest.
