The Cedar Rapids Kernels and Minnesota Twins announced Thursday that infielder Drew Leachman has been promoted to the Fort Myers Miracle of the Florida State League and that left-handed pitcher Matthew Tomshaw has been activated from the 7-day disabled list. Brad Steil, Director of Minor League Operations for the Twins, announced the move.

Leachman played in six games for the Kernels batting .346 (9-for-26) with a double, triple and four RBI. Tomshaw went on the disabled list on April 18 with an undisclosed injury. Both players were part of the 2013 Kernels Opening Day roster.

The Kernels roster is at 24 active players, one below the Midwest League maximum of 25.

The Kernels begin a six-game homestand Thursday with games against Great Lakes and Lansing.
