Erik Boland reported last night that David Aardsma will be activated for tonight's game in Minnesota.
"When I first got hurt in 2010, it was devastating," Aardsma said. "I didn't know how to take it. It was the first time I'd really been hurt. Trying to come back, I was having little setbacks, other injuries happen.
"It's an amazing feeling to be back in here and knowing that very soon I'll be back on a mound again."
Aardsma, who hasn't pitched in the big leagues since September 19, 2010 thanks to Tommy John surgery, threw just 6.2 minor-league innings this season, going 0-1 with a 2.70 ERA, allowing 2 earned on 7 hits, walked 3, and struck out 8.
