MINNEAPOLIS — Right-hander Chris Paddack was activated by the Minnesota Twins, 16 months after he had Tommy John surgery for the second time. An eighth-round pick by Miami in the 2015 amateur draft, Paddack was traded to San Diego the following year and had his first elbow repair on Aug. 15, 2016. Paddack returned to the mound on April 30, 2018, and made his big league debut with the Padres the following March 31. He was traded to the Twins in April 2022, made five starts and had his second Tommy John surgery that May 18.
