Paddack was placed on the 15-day injured list with a right forearm strain Saturday.

Paddack last pitched Sunday against the Giants, surrendering two runs (one earned) over five innings, potentially picking up a forearm injury in the process. The right-hander could be set for an extended absence as a result of the injury being to his throwing arm, but only time will tell. It's unclear who will replace Paddack in Minnesota's starting rotation, but in the meantime, outfielder Austin Martin (oblique) was activated from the 10-day injured list Saturday, filling in the hole on the major-league roster.

Correa (heel) was placed on the 10-day injured list with right plantar fasciitis Saturday, retroactive to July 16.

Correa missed the Twins' final two games before the All-Star break with a heel injury, but it wasn't considered to be particularly serious at the time. He will now be forced to miss at least the the next 10 games, but plantar fasciitis can be a very tricky situation, so it's unclear if the shortstop will be able to return when first eligible. Correa had been on a tear since the beginning of June, batting .360 with nine home runs, 28 RBI and 29 runs scored over 36 contests, so his absence is a tough pill to swallow for fantasy managers. In a corresponding move, Edouard Julien was called up from Triple-A St. Paul.

Caballero went 0-for-3 with a walk, a run scored and a stolen base in Saturday's 9-1 win over the Yankees.

Caballero swiped second before coming around to score in the fourth inning. The stolen base was the shortstop's first in what has been a disappointing July, but he still leads the American League with 25 steals on 36 attempts this season. While speed is his primary asset, the 27-year-old is also batting .241 with six home runs, 24 RBI and 39 runs scored across 294 plate appearances.

Carter (back) will take batting practice on the field at Globe Life Field on Tuesday, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

Carter has been out since May 28 while dealing with a lower-back stress reaction, but he appears to be progressing in the right direction. If he can escape the session unscathed Tuesday, the outfielder will likely gear up for some sort of rehab assignment before potentially being activated.

Paredes went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and two runs scored in Saturday's 9-1 win over the Yankees.

Paredes homered to lead off the fifth inning and then walked and scored a run in the seventh. The 25-year-old has gone hitless in eight of 14 July contests but has still managed three homers and eight RBI despite his struggles. On the year, he's batting .258 with 16 home runs, 51 RBI and 38 runs scored across 394 plate appearances.

Peralta was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday, LaMond Pope of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Peralta will return to the big leagues after being sent down to Charlotte on June 11, replacing Jordan Leasure (shoulder) in Chicago's bullpen after Leasure was placed on the 15-day injured list. Peralta has produced an impressive 1.08 ERA and 0.74 WHIP with 17 strikeouts over 16.2 innings in 14 appearances with Charlotte and he'll look to keep it up in the majors.

Arozarena went 4-for-5 with two home runs and three RBI in Saturday's 9-1 win over the Yankees.

Arozarena singled in the first inning, homered in the fifth and seventh and then added a double in the ninth. It was a massive day in what has been a bounce-back July for the 29-year-old, as he has hit safely in 12 of 14 contests this month with three long balls and four steals. Since June 1, he has seen his average climb from .158 to .212, and Arozarena now has 14 home runs and 14 stolen bases across 388 plate appearances this season.

Cortes (4-9) took the loss against the Rays on Saturday, allowing six runs on eight hits and two walks with one strikeout over 4.1 innings.

Cortes entered Saturday with a 1.81 ERA in 10 home starts but surrendered a season-high six earned runs, including three homers across the fourth and fifth innings. The Rays have the southpaw's number this season, as he generated only five swinging strikes on 92 pitches and fell to 0-3 against them in four chances. On the year, he owns a 3.99 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 111:24 K:BB across 119.2 innings and lines up for a road matchup with the Red Sox next week.

Leasure was placed on the 15-day injured list with a right shoulder impingement Saturday, retroactive to July 17, LaMond Pope of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Leasure last appeared in a game Sunday when he gave up four runs on four hits and a walk over one inning against the Pirates. He'll now be forced to miss at least 15 days. In a corresponding move, left-hander Sammy Peralta was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte.

Bradley (5-4) earned the win against the Yankees on Saturday, allowing one hit and two walks while striking out five over seven scoreless innings.

The only hit Bradley allowed was a leadoff double to Ben Rice, and he concluded his outing by retiring 11 consecutive batters. The 23-year-old has now tossed seven scoreless frames in back-to-back starts and has yielded two earned runs or fewer in eight straight. He owns a 2.63 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 90:26 K:BB across 75.1 innings and lines up for a home matchup with the Reds next week.
