Buxton (shoulder) is on the verge of beginning a rehab assignment, according to Dan Hayes of The Athletic.

Buxton participated in full baseball activities Friday, and the report suggests he will be ready to begin a rehab stint as long as he does not feel any abnormal soreness Saturday. It's not clear how many minor-league games Buxton will need before rejoining the Twins, but if he heads out on his assignment in the next day or two, he should have a chance to come off the injured list before August comes to a close.
