Carl Pavano will make his next start on Saturday.
It will give him a week off in between starts, as the Twins wanted to give him some extra rest while he deals with his shoulder issue. Cole De Vries is getting the ball on Thursday, and Anthony Swarzak will start Friday.
May 22 - 8:54 PM

Minneapolis Star-Tribune
The Twins will decide by Tuesday whether to start Carl Pavano Thursday on normal rest or give an extra day.
Pavano's shoulder is feeling much better, but the Twins want to be careful. They could call up a spot starter on Thursday, though it's not clear who that would be. Liam Hendriks is an option.

Carl Pavano is "feeling fantastic" and might not receive a cortisone shot for his right shoulder after all.
Pavano was pondering the shot due to inflammation in the shoulder that's limited his range of motion and hurt his velocity. But, evidently he's experienced significant improvement after working on strengthening the shoulder. The veteran right-hander has a 5.14 ERA in eight starts this year.

Carl Pavano will stay back in Minneapolis this week to continue strengthening his right shoulder.
Pavano allowed four runs over six innings Monday against the Indians as he continues to pitch through shoulder soreness. He's still on track to make his next scheduled start Saturday against the Brewers, though it's possible he may receive a cortisone shot. The veteran right-hander has a 5.14 ERA in eight starts this year and has failed to complete seven innings since April 16.

Nick Blackburn
D.L.
Twins placed RHP Nick Blackburn on the 15-day disabled list with a strained left quad.
Blackburn battled the injury throughout Wednesday's start against the Tigers and was rocked for six earned runs in just two innings. The Twins need to get him right, which could take around three weeks. Blackburn has an 8.37 ERA and 1.77 WHIP through seven starts this season. It was originally announced that Doumit was heading to the disabled list, but he's merely day-to-day with a left calf strain.

Scott Baker
D.L.
Updating a previous item, Scott Baker underwent Tommy John surgery Tuesday instead of just having a cleanup of the scar tissue in his flexor pronator as originally reported.
It's a significant difference, as Baker would likely have entered spring training healthy if he only had the flexor pronator cleaned out. Now, he'll almost surely be sidelined into the 2013 season. An MRI hadn't showed any damage to Baker's ulnar collateral ligament, but Dr. David Altcheck discovered damage while the righty was opened up and went ahead with the procedure.

Kyle Waldrop
D.L.
Kyle Waldrop (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment with High-A Fort Myers Saturday.
Waldrop began the season on the disabled list with a right elbow strain. The Twins haven't said how many rehab outings he'll need, but he should certainly be ready before the end of the month if he doesn't have any setbacks. He's not lock to be added to the major league roster, though.
