Byron Buxton reinstated, Trevor Larnach optioned
USA TODAY Sports

The Minnesota Twins have reinstated Byron Buxton after a stint on the 10-day injured list. In order to make room for Buxton, Minnesota has optioned Trevor Larnach to the Triple-A St. Paul Saints.

Buxton has missed the Twins' last ten games due to a rib contusion he suffered after being hit by a pitch by Cleveland's Tanner Bibee on June 1.

Before the injury, Buxton was hitting .220 with 10 home runs and 23 RBIs. 

Larnach went 4-for-22 with one home run and four RBIs in eight games since being called up.
