    Twins' Ryan Jeffers: Getting more rehab games

    Minnesota Twins manager Derek Shelton said Tuesday that Ryan Jeffers (hand) will remain on his rehab assignment with Triple-A St. Paul "for at least the next three or four days," Aaron Gleeman of AaronGleeman.com reports.Jeffers has shown no signs of rust offensively in his first four rehab contests, going 6-for-13 with a pair of home runs. However, he has yet to catch back-to-back games, and the Twins want Jeffers to build up his workload behind the dish before returning to the active roster. With only five games remaining for the Twins before the All-Star break, it seems the club will wait until the start of the second half before activating its catcher. Jeffers has been out since late May following surgery for a fractured left hamate bone.

    Ryan Jeffers (hand) was spotted taking swings in the batting cage and catching a bullpen session Monday, Theodore Tollefson of ZoneCoverage.com reports.Jeffers appears to be making good progress in his recovery from left hand surgery, but he'll still need to resume facing live pitching in batting practice before the Minnesota Twins map out a rehab assignment for the 29-year-old catcher. While Jeffers has been on the shelf, Victor Caratini has stepped in admirably as the Twins' No. 1 catcher, producing a .906 OPS since Jeffers was deactivated May 19.

    Ryan Jeffers had the cast and stitches removed from his surgically repaired left hand and has resumed throwing, Matthew Leach of MLB.com reports.The hamate bone fracture Jeffers' suffered in mid-May was to his non-throwing hand, so it's not a major surprise he was able to quickly return to throwing. The first big hurdle in the 29-year-old's rehab program will be swinging a bat. Jeffers was given an initial recovery timeline of 6-to-8 weeks, and to this point there's been nothing to indicate that timetable has changed.
