Twins' Andrew Albers: Back in big leagues

Albers was called up by the Twins on Tuesday, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Albers has been a starter in three of his four big-league appearances this season, but it's not clear that he'll fill that role this time around. John Gant (abdomen) landed on the injured list and had been serving as a starter, but his turn isn't due up until the weekend, and the Twins' off day Thursday means they can go with one fewer starter for now if they elect to go that route.
