MINNEAPOLIS -- Twins center fielder Byron Buxton, who is rehabbing after suffering a hairline fracture to his left big toe, will join the club on its road trip to Chicago, St. Louis and Anaheim, manager Paul Molitor said Wednesday.

Buxton, who suffered the injury on a foul ball off his foot during a rehab game with Class A Advanced Fort Myers on April 22, hit in the cages on Tuesday, but has yet to progress to running.

"I watched him take some swings yesterday in the cage and he looked pretty good," Molitor said.
