Anthony Swarzak - R - Minnesota Twins
Feb. 6, 2013 - 4:10 PM ET

Anthony Swarzak will miss a month after fracturing two ribs late last month in a non-baseball related activity.

Swarzak suffered the injury while horsing with around with teammates at the team's recent TwinsFest event. His absence will stretch into the Grapefruit League schedule. The 27-year-old had a 5.03 ERA and 62/31 K/BB ratio over 96 2/3 innings last season and is expected to operate as a long reliever in 2013.
