The Minnesota Twins activated outfielder Byron Buxton from the 10-day injured list on Saturday.

In a corresponding move, the Twins optioned utility player Austin Martin to Triple-A Saint Paul.

Buxton, 30, missed the past 14 games because of knee inflammation. He appeared in two games with Triple-A St. Paul on a rehab assignment, going hitless in six at-bats with an RBI.
