Mick Abel (elbow) struck out five and was charged with two runs — one earned — over five innings on Tuesday in a minor league rehab start for Triple-A St. Paul.

Abel threw 44 of 61 pitches for strikes in his second rehab start at the Triple-A level. The 24-year-old has looked outstanding in those outings and figures to only need one additional tune-up before returning to Minnesota’s rotation. He’s worth stashing in any fantasy leagues where he wound up hitting the waiver wire.
