Tue Feb 6 201819:07Twins' Santana to miss start of season after finger surgery
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Minnesota Twins right-hander Ervin Santana will miss the start of the regular season after unexpected surgery on his right middle finger.The Twins announced the 35-year-old right-hander had the procedure Tuesday in New York by Dr. Charles Melone, after Santana experienced discomfort during a bullpen session last week. Santana is expected to need 10 to 12 weeks of rehabilitation before he can pitch in a major league game, which would keep him out of the rotation until at least mid-April.Santana has had trouble with the digit before and had an X-ray and MRI after the 2017 season, when doctors determined there was no injury to the tendon. He was treated with an injection at the time. The injury resurfaced last week, and Melone's recommendation was surgery. The procedure to the joint of the finger is a capsular release/debridement. The Twins said the injury stems from wear and tear, not one acute event.Santana was an All-Star last year, going 16-8 with a 3.28 ERA in 211 1/3... [More]

C Bobby Wilson had a productive series against the team that just dealt him away on May 3. Wilson hit a grand slam Sunday and added a pair of singles. Add his two singles in his Friday night start and Wilson was 5-for-8 in the two games. "We were glad to get him back," said manager Jeff Banister, whose team dealt him to Detroit on March 29 because it had acquired another Tigers catcher, Bryan Holaday. "We saw some things in the spring about the way he was swinging the bat after making some changes." His first home run this season and first career grand slam was "a big hit in that situation," Wilson said. "And to come against the team that just traded me away a few days ago ... that made me feel good."

Wilson began spring training with Texas, was traded to Detroit on March 29 and shipped back to the Rangers on May 3. "Obviously winning is first and foremost," said Wilson, who went over the Detroit hitters with Hamels earlier in the week. "My first job is catching. I was cheering for those guys a few days ago. It was different. It was good to see those guys again. They were good to me."

C Bobby Wilson started behind the plate on Wednesday and was 1-for-3 with a walk in the 4-3 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays after being acquired in a trade with the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday for LHP Chad Bell. The Rangers traded Wilson with RHP Myles Jaye to the Tigers on March 29 for C Bryan Holaday. Wilson opened the season with Triple-A Toledo before joining the Tigers April 12. Wilson is batting .188 for the season but has experience with the Rangers pitching staff. It was decided not to carry three catchers because there was a bigger need to keep pitchers so C Brett Nicholas was optioned to Triple-A Round Rock. "It's a position we want to be protected at," general manager Jon Daniels said. "(Wilson) knows the staff and we think he'd be a real good complement to what we have right now. ... I don't know if (three catchers) is something that makes sense all year, but it in the medium-term, it's something we are talking about." C Robert Chirinos (fractured right forearm) will be out for about another five weeks. Wilson became available when Detroit activated C James McCann.
