Kevin Slowey’s right wrist injury is no more serious than the Twins originally diagnosed, General Manager Bill Smith said today, relaying the update after Slowey visited a Baltimore specialist. 

The doctor agreed that Slowey has a strained right wrist and treated him with a cortisone injection. Smith said Slowey will rest for a couple days before resuming his throwing.

Slowey, who is 10-3 with a 4.86 ERA, is eligible to return from the 15-day disabled list on July 19.
