OF Aaron Hicks, SP Logan Darnell set to join Twins

The Twins have announced the activation of outfielder Aaron Hicks from the disabled list and the promotion of left-hander Logan Darnell from Triple-A Rochester.

Hicks spent the minimum amount of time on the DL with a strained hamstring. He will try to break a 3-for-30 skid upon his return.

Darnell has shined in the minors this season, and particularly since moving into a starting role. He is 5-1 with a 2.78 ERA.
