Perkins (back spasms) won't go on the Twins' upcoming road trip, MLB.com's Rhett Bollinger reports.
EDGE Analysis
Perkins was unable to get out of bed due to the back spasms Wednesday, despite feeling fine after getting a save Tuesday. He will stay in Minneapolis, and won't be available until Sept. 14, at the earliest, when the team returns for a 10-game homestand. Kevin Jepsen should serve as the Twins' closer for the foreseeable future.
