  • Blackburn nearing rehab stint : Twins manager Ron Gardenhire told MLB.com that pitcher Nick Blackburn could start a minor-league rehab assignment soon. Blackburn, on the 15-day disabled list due to a left quadriceps strain, is slated to throw a bullpen session on Sunday. "We're looking at Blackburn maybe going down to rehab to get a couple of starts," Gardenhire said. "Probably in Triple-A, but it depends on the best situation for him. But that's in the works. It hasn't been decided yet. We have to get him healthy."

    Injury Report
    Quadriceps - 15-day DL. Out until at least early June
    (Updated - 5/17/12)
    Fantasy Analysis
    While there is still no official timetable for his return, it sounds like Blackburn is getting close to starting a rehab assignment. However, that will depend on how his bullpen session goes, so owners should keep an eye on how he fares on Sunday. Still, Blackburn is just 1-4 with a 8.37 ERA on the season, making him merely an AL-only option when healthy.
