Activated from 10-day IL The Twins activated Buxton (hip) from the 10-day injured list Thursday.

Impact Buxton's progress from a right impingement was slow going initially, but he got through a full workout this week with no issues to clear the way for his return to action. It's possible the Twins will give him some extra time at designated hitter in order to protect his hip, but fantasy managers will receive a nice boost in being able to re-insert Buxton into their lineup.

Goes through full workout Buxton (hip) went through a full workout at Target Field on Monday, Jack Azoulay-Haron of ElEmergente.com reports.

Impact Working his way back from a right hip impingement, Buxton ran the bases and took batting practice on the field as part of a "very encouraging" workout, per Twins manager Derek Shelton. The club will wait to see how Buxton recovers from the workout before determining next steps, but Shelton noted that the outfielder will not need a rehab assignment before returning. It seems Buxton's return is imminent, but the Twins could offer more clarity on the center fielder's status later Tuesday.

Impact Buxton hit the IL for the second time in less than a month after suffering an aggravation of a right hip impingement, an injury that had been bothering him dating back to mid-May. He received an unspecified injection last week to treat the injury, and while he's made some gradual improvement, he won't be in line to return from the IL when first eligible this weekend. While Buxton is on the shelf, Luke Keaschall will likely continue to serve as the Twins' everyday center fielder, and Alan Roden should hold down the strong side of a platoon in right field.
