Buxton (finger) played five innings Friday in center field and went 0-for-2 with a strikeout for Triple-A St. Paul in the first game of a rehabilitation assignment. He will play again possibly Saturday and Sunday depending on how he feels, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

It's not clear how long Buxton will be at Triple-A before he's activated from the injured list. He'll likely play two or three games before the Twins decide on a next course of action, but it's possible he could be activated early next week.
