News and Notes

Morneau (groin) is in Friday's lineup at first base against Detroit, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. Recommendation: He left Wednesday's game with the injury but it looks like Thursday's off day has him ready to play. |

1B Justin Morneau batted .251 with five home runs in June after hitting .361 with nine home runs in May. But perhaps Morneau's bat is heating up again -- he's homered in three of his last four games. |

Morneau departed from Wednesday's game in the seventh inning with tightness in the left groin. Advice: Morneau has been swinging a hot bat lately, and there doesn't seem like too much to worry about here. "It should be good to go by Friday," Morneau said. "We've got a day off tomorrow. We didn't want to make it any worse. I felt like if there was a ball to my right, a play I've got to dive for, I could have made it a lot worse. So it was just better to come out." |
