The Minnesota Twins have placed catcher Mitch Garver on the 10-day injured list with a sprained left ankle, returning third baseman Miguel SanĂ³ from his rehabilitation assignment.

The Twins made the moves before the series finale 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.
