Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said Wednesday that Kirilloff will be placed on the 10-day injured list with inflammation in his surgically repaired right wrist, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Minnesota isn't putting a timeline on his return, but given that Kirilloff's injury is related to his previous surgery, it wouldn't be surprising if he was sidelined for more than the 10-day minimum. He's expected to get imaging on the wrist and meet with team doctors in the coming days, at which point a clearer timeline for his return should emerge. Gilberto Celestino is filling in for Kirilloff in the outfield in Wednesday's game against the Dodgers, but the Twins could recall Trevor Larnach from Triple-A St. Paul to serve as Kirilloff's primary replacement in left field while he's on the IL.
