Torkelson suffered an ankle sprain while playing in the Arizona Fall League and is expected to miss "a significant amount of time," Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

Torkelson was absent from batting practice Thursday morning after being removed from Wednesday's game. Though initial reports suggest he's in for an extended absence, it was also noted that he could return prior to the end of Arizona Fall League action. Prior to the injury, Torkelson had collected nine hits in 29 plate appearances with two doubles while playing for Salt River. Regardless of whether he retakes the field in Arizona, the issue should not effect Torkelson's ability to participate in spring training barring any setback or change in diagnosis.
