The outfielder, who sprained his left wrist diving for a fly ball March 16, will remain with the Miracle until he has gotten used to playing every day again, assistant General Manager Rob Antony said.
If Buxton hadn't suffered the injury, he was expected to start this season at Class AA New Britain.
Buxton spent the first part of spring training with the Twins, going 3 for 19 with one home run in seven games.
