The Minnesota Twins placed right-handed pitcher Taj Bradley on the 15-day injured list Saturday because of inflammation in his right pectoral muscle.
The move is retroactive to Wednesday, one day after Bradley struck out eight batters over six innings and earned the win in an 11-3 victory at Washington. Bradley, 25, improved to 4-1 with a 2.87 ERA through eight starts this season, recording 52 strikeouts and 17 walks in 47 innings.
In 83 career games (81 starts) with the Rays (2023-2025) and the Twins, Bradley has a 23-28 record with a 4.64 ERA. The Twins acquired him from Tampa Bay at the 2025 trade deadline for right-hander Griffin Jax.
Minnesota recalled right-hander Travis Adams from Triple-A St. Paul to replace Bradley on the 26-man roster. Adams, 26, is 3-0 with a 9.00 ERA in five relief appearances this season at St. Paul.
