Heston was optioned to Triple-A Rochester on Monday, Brandon Warne of ZoneCoverage.com reports.
After being claimed off waivers last week, Heston made his Twins debut Sunday against the Giants, tossing a scoreless inning in relief. Since the Twins have a few bullpen arms capable of covering multiple innings when necessary, the team didn't have a need to carry an extra long reliever, so Heston will head back to the minors to make room for shortstop Jorge Polanco (personal), who was activated from the bereavement list Monday in a corresponding move.
