Paddack noted after Friday's session that his goal is to return for the start of the postseason if the Twins are able to make it. The right-hander has been on the injured list since July 20 due to a forearm strain, and he was transferred to the 60-day IL on Sept. 1. He has a 5-3 record across 17 starts this season with a 4.99 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 79:21 K:BB across 88.1 innings.
