The Twins have outrighted utility infielder Doug Bernier, according to the MLB.com transactions page. The 35-year-old signed a minor league deal with the Twins after they outrighted him following last season. Bernier then played several weeks for Triple-A Rochester before being promoted in early May. He collected just six plate appearances with the Twins before being optioned back to the minors.
Bernier has a .254/.326/.308 line in 188 plate appearances with Rochester this season. The Triple-A veteran has 83 career plate appearances in the big leagues, spread across four seasons with the Twins and Rockies.
