The Minnesota Twins placed right-hander Bailey Ober on the 15-day injured list on Sunday with inflammation in his right elbow.
Ober, 30, is 6-3 with a 4.59 ERA in 12 starts this season. He was shelled for eight runs (seven earned) on 12 hits in 4 2/3 innings in Saturday’s 10-9 loss at Pittsburgh.
Ober is 37-33 with a 4.13 ERA in 127 career starts since making his debut with Twins in 2021. He has struck out 650 batters and walked 151 in 684 1/3 innings.
Minnesota also selected the contract of right-hander Mike Paredes, optioned right-hander John Klein to Triple-A St. Paul and recalled right-hander Travis Adams from St. Paul.
Paredes, 25, has yet to make his major league debut. He is 3-2 with a 4.44 ERA in 13 games (10 starts) this season between St. Paul and Double-A Wichita.
Klein, 24, was recalled Saturday and pitched the final two innings in the loss against the Pirates, allowing one hit and walking three batters with one strikeout. He is 0-1 with a 4.15 ERA in three relief appearances this season.
Adams, 26, is 1-0 with one save and a 7.20 ERA in seven games out of the bullpen this season.
