The Twins placed Wallner on the 10-day injured list Friday due to a strained right oblique. Wallner was removed from Wednesday's game with right back spasms and wasn't part of Friday's lineup due to the issue. He'll now head to the injured list with what's being called a right oblique strain. The Twins are eliminated from postseason eligibility, meaning Wallner won't be able to return in 2025. He'll end the season with a .202/.311/.464 slash line and 22 home runs across 392 plate appearances. DaShawn Keirsey was recalled from Triple-A St. Paul in a corresponding move.

Wallner went 2-for-4 with two home runs and three RBI in Monday's 10-4 loss to the Blue Jays. The Minnesota slugger notched his second career multi-homer game, with his first coming over two years ago July 26, 2023. Wallner popped a 419-foot solo shot off Toronto starter Max Scherzer in the fourth before returning in the sixth to slug a 423-foot, two-run homer, again off Scherzer. The 27-year-old has found his power swing in August, producing six long balls, 11 runs scored and 10 RBI with a .232 (13-for-56) batting average. In 311 total plate appearances, Wallner is now slashing .214/.322/.500 with 19 homers, 38 runs scored and 32 RBI this season.

Wallner is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox. Wallner doesn't yet appear to be in danger of losing a regular spot in the lineup versus right-handed pitching, but he'll head to the bench for the second time in four games while Kody Clemens handles right field. Since returning to action Aug. 12 after a stint on the paternity list, Wallner has gone 4-for-28 with a 36.4 percent strikeout rate in nine games.
