Injury Status: 60 Day IL
Injury: Elbow
by Dave Funnell
Minnesota Twins relief pitcher Cole Sands (forearm) was transferred to the 15-day injured list on Saturday with a strained right forearm. The 28-year-old struggled in his last appearance, surrendering two earned runs on three hits in just two-thirds of an inning. Before that, he had been a reliable source of outs in the Twins' bullpen, recording one save and three holds over 11 appearances. However, with his fastball velocity down nearly two miles per hour compared to last year, it's fair to wonder if he had been dealing with this issue for some time. There is no timeline for his return, as the severity is not yet known, but he will be eligible for activation in 15 days.
