Minnesota Twins outfielder Kyle Garlick (rib) left Monday's 5-3 win over the Tigers early with rib inflammation, per Twins writer Betsy Helfand. Garlick will undergo an MRI as the team continues to assess him. He went 0-for-2 with a strikeout prior to exiting the game. The 30-year-old has been a useful fantasy option in a limited sample size, slashing .257/.319/.514 with eight home runs and 18 RBI in 116 plate appearances. Fantasy managers should wait to hear more, but they should take a look at their waiver wires now in the event that Garlick has to miss time with his injury.
