David Festa Injury: Placed on IL with shoulder issue

The Twins placed Festa on the 15-day injured list Wednesday due to right shoulder inflammation.

Festa struggled in his most recent start Monday against the Dodgers, allowing three home runs and four runs over 5.1 innings. It's not clear, however, whether his shoulder was bothering him during the outing. The right-hander will be eligible for activation Aug. 6, but the Twins won't have a clear idea regarding when he might return until he starts throwing again.
