Lands on IL with hip injury
The Twins placed Buxton (hip) on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Aaron Gleeman of AaronGleeman.com reports.
Analyse
Buxton has been in and out of the lineup over the past week with a right hip issue, and he aggravated the injury during Sunday's game against the Yankees. He will be eligible to return at the beginning of the second half, but it's unclear whether Buxton will be ready to go at that time. Ryan Kreidler will likely see the lion's share of starts in center field for Minnesota while Buxton is shelved.

Aggravates hip injury
Buxton was removed from Sunday's game against the Yankees due to an aggravation of a right hip injury, Brendan Kuty of The Athletic reports.
Analyse
The center fielder was caught stealing after singling in the first inning -- which ended a streak of 37 straight successful steal attempts going back to 2024 -- before being lifted from Sunday's contest. Buxton had just rejoined the lineup Saturday after sitting out four contests due to a hip impingement, and it's not yet clear if the aggravation is more severe than the initial injury. He'll have Monday's team off day to aid in his recovery and should be considered day-to-day heading into Tuesday's series opener versus Cleveland.

Exits early Sunday
Buxton was removed from Sunday's game against the Yankees prior to the bottom of the first inning due to an apparent injury, Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com reports.
Analyse
After reaching base on an infield single in his first at-bat, Buxton was thrown out trying to steal second base, ending a streak of 37 consecutive successful attempts that dated back to May 1, 2024. More significantly, the star center fielder appeared to suffer an injury on the play. The Twins should provide an update on Buxton's condition later in the day, but he had missed four consecutive starts due to a right hip impingement before he returned to the lineup Saturday.

Drives in two in return to lineup
Buxton went 1-for-3 with a walk, a double, a run scored and two RBI in Saturday's 11-4 rout of the Yankees.
Analyse
Returning to the lineup in center field after missing the prior four games due to a hip issue, Buxton immediately cleared up concerns about his health by ripping an RBI double off the wall in left field in his first plate appearance. The 32-year-old has suited up for 74 of the Twins' 90 contests so far this season, putting him on pace to top 130 games played for the first time since 2017. He's compiled a .269/.326/.574 slash line with 25 homers, seven steals, 45 RBI and 57 runs.

Back in action Saturday
Buxton (hip) will start in center field and bat second against the Yankees on Saturday.
Analyse
Buxton missed each of the Twins' last four games due to a right hip impingement, but the veteran outfielder has been given the green light to return to action Saturday. He finished the month of June with a .287/.330/.596 slash line with three steals, eight home runs and 16 RBI across 100 plate appearances.

Remains sidelined Friday
Buxton (hip) remains out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Yankees.
Analyse
Even after an off day Thursday, Buxton isn't ready to return to the starting lineup and will miss his fourth straight contest. Ryan Kreidler is manning center field again in his place and batting seventh against right-hander Gerrit Cole.
