August 8, 2025 2:07 PM : The Twins placed Vazquez on the 10-day injured list Friday due to a left shoulder infection.
Analysis: The issue is with his non-throwing shoulder, but it will still require a stint on the injured list. The 34-year-old Vazquez will be eligible to return for the start of a three-game homestand against the Athletics which begins Aug. 19. Until then, Jhonny Pereda and Mickey Gasper will provide catching depth behind Ryan Jeffers.
