On Friday, the Minnesota Twins called up Alex Wimmers from Triple-A and also gave Andrew Albers a spot in the rotation.
The duo will take the starting spots held by Jose Berrios and Tyler Duffey.
Both Duffey and Berrios had been struggling in 2016 and while both may play important roles in rotation’s future, it may be best for them to regain some confidence moving forward.
Both were optioned to Triple-A Rochester following the short home stand.
Berrios had posted 9.24 ERA in 37 innings while allowing four or more runs four times in five starts since his August call-up.
