Caratini was removed from Wednesday's game against the Guardians due to a right knee contusion, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.
Caratini wasn't able to finish his at-bat in the fifth inning after fouling a ball off his knee. He appears to have escaped the incident without suffering any structural damage, though the Twins could still give him a day or two off to recover as a precaution.

Caratini will start at first base and bat sixth in Wednesday's game against the Guardians.
Caratini sat out the Twins' first game following the All-Star break, but he's been included in the lineup for each of the ensuing five contests while the team has gone up against three left-handed and two right-handed starters. The Twins will continue to make room for Caratini in the lineup versus lefties, but he may be stuck in more of a part-time role versus righties following Ryan Jeffers' recent return from the injured list.

Caratini is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.
On the bench for the third time in four games, Caratini has faded back into the No. 2 role at catcher following Ryan Jeffers' recent return from the injured list. While Jeffers was on the shelf, Caratini produced admirably in his stead, slashing .281/.361/.491 with six home runs, 19 RBI and 15 runs over 34 games.
