The Twins announced that Paredes suffered a left oblique strain prior to his start against the Athletics on Saturday, which led to him being scratched, Aaron Gleeman of AaronGleeman.com reports.
While warming up in the bullpen before his slated start, Paredes suffered a left oblique strain. On the season, Paredes owns a 4.72 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 19:13 K:BB. It is unclear how much time the 25-year-old will miss, but he's a safe bet to be placed on the injured list in the near future.
