Rotowire
Bohorquez was placed on 7-day injured list at High-A Cedar Rapids with a right forearm strain, Theodore Tollefson of Zone Coverage reports.
Given the nature of the injury, it could be a lengthy absence for the 21-year-old hurler. Bohorquez carries an 11.25 ERA and 13:9 K:BB over eight innings in his first three starts with Cedar Rapids this season.

Twins' Adrian Bohorquez: Up arrow in second half
Rotowire
Bohorquez, who was promoted to High-A Cedar Rapids on Aug. 4, has a 1.76 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 31:5 K:BB in 30.2 innings across his last seven starts.
Bohorquez issued 17 walks in his first 20 innings this season at Single-A Fort Myers, but something has clicked lately for the 20-year-old righty. A sturdy 6-foot-1, 190 pounds, Bohorquez has a plus curveball and his fastball has been up to 97 mph in recent starts, although his third-pitch cutter lags behind as a fringe-average offering.
