Vargas limped off the field in obvious pain after a flyout during Friday's spring training game, Mike Berardino of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
Vargas was slated to get as many at-bats as possible before the regular season starts as he didn't get much playing time during Puerto Rico's WBC run. This early exit wasn't about rust or a lack of conditioning -- Vargas fouled a ball off his shin -- but regardless, if he misses significant time, this injury might just open the door for Byungho Park to grab the Twins' DH job.
