Farmer is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels. Farmer drew a rare start against a right-hander (Griffin Canning) in Tuesday's 10-5 win and came through with a big night, going 2-for-3 with a home run, a walk, three RBI and an additional run. Though the home run was his second in as many days and helped bring his OPS up to 1.471 in September, Farmer looks like he'll remain in a short-side platoon role for the Twins.

The Twins activated Farmer (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list Friday, Declan Goff of SKOR North reports. He's been sidelined for nearly a month with a right shoulder strain but is ready to go after playing three rehab games with Triple-A St. Paul. Farmer is starting at second base and batting ninth in the first game of Friday's doubleheader against the Guardians.

Farmer (shoulder) is starting a rehab assignment Tuesday with Triple-A St. Paul, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports. Farmer has been out nearly a month due to a shoulder strain but has now been cleared for game action. The 33-year-old may not require a lengthy rehab stint before rejoining the Twins.

The Twins placed Farmer on the 10-day injured list Friday due to a right shoulder strain, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports. Farmer hasn't seen a ton of action in July with nine at-bats in six games, and it's unclear when he picked up the shoulder injury. The 33-year-old will be eligible to be activated early in the second half but is without an official timeline for his return.

Farmer (finger) will start at second base and bat ninth in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader with the White Sox. Farmer hadn't played in either of the Twins' last two games after he exited the team's 3-2 win over the Astros on Sunday, when he was hit on the index finger by a pitch. The injury is apparently a non-issue at this point, however, as Farmer will head back into the starting nine for the second leg of the twin bill. The right-handed-hitting Farmer typically makes most of his starts against left-handed pitching, but he'll face off against White Sox righty Drew Thorpe on Wednesday.
