Twins activated OF Jason Repko from the 15-day disabled list.
He's taking the spot of the recently departed Jim Thome. Repko has been on the DL since mid-August with left shoulder bursitis but is good to go after picking up four hits -- including a home run -- in 14 rehab at-bats with Triple-A Rochester. He'll provide outfield depth.

Jason Repko (shoulder) is close to heading out on a rehab assignment.
Repko has only been on the DL for a little over a week, so he shouldn't need too many games before being ready. It seems likely he'll be available before the end of the month or perhaps when rosters expand on September 1.

Twins placed OF Jason Repko on the 15-day disabled list with left shoulder bursitis.
The move was made to clear room on the 25-man roster for Justin Morneau, who came off the disabled list on Friday morning. Hitting just .245/.287/.265 this season, Repko will likely rejoin the Twins some time in September.
