Twins placed INF Kaelen Culpepper on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain.

This will almost assuredly end Culpepper’s season since the MLB season ends just over 10 days from now. This is also his third trip to the injured list this season, if we include minor league stints; however, he doesn’t have a long track record of injuries. The 23-year-old hit .275/.333/.404 with three home runs, 15 runs scored, and 11 RBI in 31 MLB games. He should be the team’s starting shortstop next season.
