Twins' Aaron Whitefield: Makes Opening Day roster

Whitefield has made Minnesota's Opening Day 30-man roster.

Whitefield is a surprise addition, but he'll likely just add outfield depth with Byron Buxton on the 30-man roster but working his way back from a foot injury. Whitefield will likely be sent back to the team's alternative training camp next week when Buxton shows he's able to play at full strength. Whitefield was added to the 40-man roster as a result.
