The Twins have reinstated right-handed starting pitcher Simeon Woods Richardson from the 15-day injured list, the team announced. He will make the start in the Twins' series finale against the Toronto Blue Jays at Rogers Centre on Wednesday. Minnesota demoted right-handed pitcher Pierson Ohl, who has a 5.66 ERA with 16 strikeouts and four homers allowed in 20 2/3 innings with the Twins this season, to Triple-A St. Paul as a corresponding move.
The Twins placed Woods Richardson, who has a 4.24 ERA with 69 strikeouts and 35 walks for Minnesota this season, on the 15-day IL with an illness on Aug.
