Twins place Garver on IL with high ankle sprain, return Sanó

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota Twins have placed catcher Mitch Garver on the 10-day injured list with a sprained left ankle and returned third baseman Miguel Sanó from his rehabilitation assignment.

The Twins made the moves on Wednesday before their game against the Los Angeles Angels, following Garver’s injury the night before. He was diagnosed with a high sprain, which can take longer to heal than other varieties. Garver has had a breakout season, batting .329 with four doubles, nine home runs and 19 RBIs in 25 games. His OPS is 1.164.

After suffering a severe cut on his right heel in January, Sanó has finally been cleared for action. He played in 10 games on his rehab in the minors.
