FORT MYERS, Fla. - The Minnesota Twins have put left-hander Scott Diamond on the 15-day disabled list as he continues his recovery from arthroscopic surgery on his pitching elbow.

Diamond is projected as one of the team's top starters this season after going 12-9 with a 3.54 ERA last year.

The Twins also announced right-hander Anthony Swarzak was put on the 15-day list as he recovers from rib fractures. Swarzak was hurt in January while wrestling with teammates at a fan festival.
