The Twins transferred Paredes (oblique) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Saturday.
Shortly after his initial placement on the IL, Paredes was diagnosed with a Grade 2 left oblique strain, per MLB.com. After shifting to the 60-day IL to clear a 40-man roster spot for the newly acquired Dean Kremer, Paredes won't be eligible to rejoin Minnesota until Sept. 21.

The Twins placed Paredes (oblique) on the 15-day injured list Sunday.
The right-hander was scheduled to start Saturday against the A's but was scratched due to an oblique issue, and he'll now be sidelined for at least the next couple weeks. A longer absence wouldn't be surprising for Paredes given the nature of the injury.

The Twins announced that Paredes suffered a left oblique strain prior to his start against the Athletics on Saturday, which led to him being scratched, Aaron Gleeman of AaronGleeman.com reports.
While warming up in the bullpen before his slated start, Paredes suffered a left oblique strain. On the season, Paredes owns a 4.72 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 19:13 K:BB. It is unclear how much time the 25-year-old will miss, but he's a safe bet to be placed on the injured list in the near future.

The Twins scratched Paredes from his start Saturday against the Athletics for unspecified reasons.
Kendry Rojas will instead make the late-notice start for Minnesota. The Twins have yet to announce why Paredes was scratched, but it's presumably related to an injury

Paredes (0-3) took the loss Tuesday, giving up two runs on six hits and a walk over three innings of relief as the Twins fell 5-2 to the Guardians. He didn't strike out a batter.
Kendry Rojas got the start but worked just 2.1 innings before handing the ball to Paredes in a tandem arrangement, with neither pitcher being particularly effective. Since joining the big-league roster in late May, Paredes has managed a 4.72 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 19:13 K:BB through 34.1 innings over nine appearances (five starts). Connor Prielipp (finger) is closing in on a return from the IL to fill the fifth starter spot, but depending on how Minnesota navigates the trade deadline, there could be other openings in the rotation in August. Paredes hasn't done much to stake a claim for any vacancies, however.

Paredes struck out four and allowed one earned run on three hits and one walk across two innings of relief in Saturday's 6-2 loss to the Cubs.
Paredes had started in each of his final five appearances of the first half, but the Twins elected to shift him to the bullpen coming out of the All-Star break. Minnesota still has an opening in its rotation while Connor Prielipp (finger) remains on the injured list, but the team looks as though it will go in a different direction when the fifth spot comes up again Tuesday in Cleveland. Paredes went 0-2 and turned in a 4.50 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 11:7 K:BB in 22 innings over his five starts.
