The Minnesota Twins have claimed lefty Michael Strong off waivers from the Miami Marlins. The Marlins designated him for assignment to make room for Wei-Yin Chen. The Twins’ 40 man roster was full before the move and so Logan Darnell has been designated for assignment.
Darnell, another lefty who was an outside candidate for a spot in the Twins’ bullpen this year, will likely be picked up by another team off waivers. Darnell has pitched in the majors and had a solid showing last year in AAA. Darnell is a swingman but mostly relieved in 2015.
