Lewis has demonstrated some healing since landing on the 10-day injured list May 30, but he has yet to progress to baseball activities while recovers from a bone bruise of his right knee, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

Hayes relays that the Twins are still planning on sending Lewis in for a follow-up MRI, but that seems merely designed to confirm the first diagnosis that he's dealing with a bone bruise. In any case, Lewis looks to be at least a week away from resuming activities, so a late-June return from the IL could be a best-case scenario for the hotshot rookie at this juncture.

Ramirez went 0-for-7 with a pair of walks and a stolen base in Tuesday's doubleheader versus the Rangers.

Ramirez has now gone hitless in three straight games for the first time all season. The steal was a nice consolation prize for fantasy managers -- he's now 8-for-10 on the basepaths this year. Overall, the star third baseman has a .280/.386/.608 slash line with 14 homers, 53 RBI, 33 runs scored, four triples and 12 doubles in 51 contests. It's safe to assume his current mini-slump at the plate won't last much longer.

LeMahieu went 3-for-4 with one RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's win over the Twins.

LeMahieu was productive on the basepaths, scoring on home runs by Anthony Rizzo and Aaron Judge. The veteran righty picked up his RBI on a bases loaded walk. The three-hit outing was his third such instance this season and brought LeMahieu's batting average up to .264.

Walls went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run Tuesday in the Rays' 4-2 win over the Cardinals in 10 innings.

Walls made his lone hit of the game count, taking Drew VerHagen deep in the bottom of the 10th for a two-out walkoff blast, his third of the season. Now that he's moved past the calf issue that sidelined him for a few days last week, Walls is expected to maintain an everyday role at shortstop while Wander Franco (quadriceps) is on the 10-day injured list.

Urias went 1-for-3 with a home run, a hit-by-pitch and two total runs scored in Tuesday's 9-3 win over the Cubs.

Urias went 0-for-7 in his last two games, and he was well on his way to another lackluster line Tuesday before going yard in the sixth inning. His was one of five homers hit by the Orioles in the contest. Urias is now one shy of his career high with six homers through 48 contests this season. He's added 18 RBI, 22 runs scored, 10 doubles and a .225/.273/.387 slash line.

Candelario's shoulder subluxation isn't expected to cost him much more than the minimum 10 days, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

Candelario was diagnosed with the subluxation Tuesday, but it appears to be a fairly minor one. He'll be out until at least next Thursday, with Harold Castro expected to serve as the primary third baseman in Candelario's absence.

Miranda is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Yankees, Marly Rivera of ESPN.com reports.

Miranda has produced three home runs while batting .318 over his last six starts, but his playing time could grow more scarce with Max Kepler recently returning from the restricted list and with Carlos Correa (illness) on track to come off the COVID-19-related injured list Wednesday. The rookie will be taking a seat Tuesday for only the third time in the Twins' last nine contests.

Rendon (wrist) took grounders before batting practice Monday, but a timetable for his return remains uncertain, the Associated Press reports.

Rendon has been showing improvement, and a recent medical evaluation indicated that he is healing as expected. The third baseman went on the 10-day injured list with right wrist inflammation May 27 and is eligible to return, but it appears that he'll need additional time before rejoining the big-league club. It's uncertain if Rendon will need to go on a rehab assignment once he's able to play.

Candelario was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left shoulder subluxation Tuesday.

Candelario suffered the injury Sunday against the Yankees. The transaction was backdated by one day, meaning Candelario will be eligible to return next Thursday, but it's not yet clear whether that's a potential target date. A subluxation is a minor dislocation, so the third baseman's recovery time will depend on just how minor his particular dislocation is. Harold Castro is the only other Tiger to play third base thus far this season, so he'll likely spend a fair amount of time there in Candelario's absence.

Toro is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Astros.

Toro will retreat to the bench after he went 2-for-19 with two runs and an RBI over his five games (four starts) since he returned from the 10-day injured list last Wednesday. With Taylor Trammell handling designated-hitter duties Monday in place of Toro, Dylan Moore will enter the starting nine in the outfield.
