News: Punto will undergo right wrist surgery on Friday, but is expected to be ready for the start of spring training, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Analysis: Punto's wrist injury is not serious, but the Twins elected to have him undergo a minor clean-up procedure to get the problem taken care of. Position players report on February 26, and Punto is expected to be there.

News: Punto left Wednesday's game in the seventh inning with a sore lower back after getting hit by a base runner trying to break up a double play at second base.
Analysis: Luckily this injury sounds unrelated to the rib injury that sidelined him for six days last week.
