The Twins placed right-handed pitcher Taj Bradley on the 15-day Injured List with right pectoralis muscle inflammation on Saturday (retroactive to May 6).
Bradley made eight starts for the Twins, going 4-1 with a 2.87 ERA (47.0 IP, 15 ER), 17 walks, 52 strikeouts, a 1.19 WHIP, a .219 opponent batting average and five quality starts. The 25-year-old leads the Twins in innings pitched, strikeouts and wins, while ranking ninth among American League qualifying pitchers in ERA.
To replace Bradley on the 26-man roster, the Twins recalled right-handed pitcher Travis Adams from Triple-A St. Paul. Adams recently made two appearances for the Saints from May 3-6, pitching 2.0 scoreless innings, with one hit allowed, no walks and two strikeouts. Prior to that stretch, he made five appearances on rehab assignment for St. Paul and Low-A Fort Myers, while recovering from a right triceps strain, an injury he sustained during spring training. The 26-year-old appeared in 18 games (2 starts) for Minnesota during his rookie season in 2025, going 1-4 with a 7.49 ERA, 17 walks and 31 strikeouts.
