Thorpe was recalled from Triple-A Rochester on Monday.

Thorpe has worked primarily as a starter this season, so he should offer length out of Minnesota's bullpen during his time in the majors. The 23-year-old southpaw impressed in a spot start last month, allowing two runs across five innings while striking out seven. Zack Littell was optioned to the minors in a corresponding move.
