Twins bench coach Jayce Tingler said Friday that Stewart could be activated in four weeks if all goes well during the rehab process, meaning the right-hander likely won't be back with the big club until around early or mid-September.

Earns first save Stewart picked up the save Saturday against the Blue Jays. He allowed one hit and no walks while striking out one over a scoreless inning.

Stewart has suddenly become an reliable option in a struggling bullpen as he's thrown 14 scoreless innings with 15 strikeouts (though he has a concerning 11 walks). He could see increasing high-leverage opportunities if he can issue fewer free passes.
