The Twins reinstated catcher Christian Vázquez from the 10-day injured list, the team announced on Monday. DaShawn Keirsey Jr. was optioned to Triple-A St. Paul as a corresponding move.
Vázquez, 35, has been sidelined since early August after undergoing surgery to remove an infection from his left shoulder. In 61 games this season, the veteran catcher is slashing .174/.251/.247 for a 41 wRC+ with two home runs and 13 RBIs over 199 plate appearances.
Vázquez is now the third catcher on the Twins' active roster, joining Jhonny Pereda and Mickey Gasper.
