The Twins are placing Lewis on the injured list, according to Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press.
Lewis missed roughly the first month of the regular season after straining his left hamstring during spring training.
The 26-year-old has dealt with injuries throughout his career, missing time due to issues with his quad, adductor, oblique, and hamstring. He also tore his ACL for a second time in 2022.
Lewis has struggled at the plate this season, registering a .585 OPS with only two home runs and nine RBIs in 30 games. He had been heating up of late, hitting .429 with four runs scored and four RBIs across his last 21 at-bats.
