Minneapolis, MN (My Sportsbook) - The Minnesota Twins activated pitcher Scott Baker off the 15-day disabled list in time to make Wednesday's start against the Toronto Blue Jays. Baker started the season on the disabled list with right shoulder stiffness. Last season with Minnesota, the 27-year-old right-hander went 11-4 with a 3.45 earned run average in 28 starts. In September during Minnesota's run for the Central Division, which the team lost in a one-game playoff against Chicago, Baker went 3-0 with a 2.53 ERA. The Twins opened a roster spot after Tuesday's game by optioning lefty Brian Duensing to Triple-A Rochester.
