Zander Wiel: Let go by Minnesota

The Twins released Wiel (quadriceps) on Wednesday, Brandon Warne of Access Twins reports.

Wiel had resided on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A St. Paul since early May, but he appeared to be closing in on a return after kicking off a rehab assignment in the rookie-level Florida Complex League. Though the injury is seemingly behind Wiel, the Twins apparently didn't deem him worthy of a spot on the Triple-A roster. The 28-year-old infielder will look to find work in another organization ahead of the 2022 season.
