The Twins
recalled Keirsey from Triple-A St. Paul on Sunday.
AnalysisKeirsey will join the Twins as a replacement on the 26-man active roster for third baseman
Royce Lewis (hamstring), who was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. As a result of Lewis' placement on the IL, super-utility player
Willi Castro could end up seeing more of his starts in the infield, but Keirsey is more likely to be deployed as a pinch runner or late-inning defensive replacement than being used as an everyday player in the outfield. After winning a spot on the Twins' Opening Day roster, the 28-year-old slashed just .109/.136/.156 with one home run and five stolen bases across 66 plate appearances before he was optioned to St. Paul on May 31.
