Twins activate reliever Haley from 10-day DL

MINNEAPOLIS -- A day after designating reliever Michael Tonkin for assignment, the Twins activated Rule 5 Draft pick Justin Haley from the 10-day disabled list on Sunday.

Haley, who had been on the DL since April 22 with a strained right biceps, was recalled from a rehab assignment with Triple-A Rochester earlier than scheduled, as he had made just one appearance. But it was a solid one, as the right-hander threw a scoreless inning with two strikeouts on Friday.

"Ideally, we would've liked to see him get stretched out a little bit more," Twins manager Paul Molitor said.
