  • Twins' Kyle Garlick: Outrighted to Triple-A

    Garlick cleared waivers and was sent outright to Triple-A St. Paul on Saturday, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    Garlick was optioned to Triple-A on June 13 and ultimately designated for assignment Tuesday, but he'll stick around in the Twins organization. The 31-year-old outfielder is slashing .210/.308/.427 through 143 plate appearances in Triple-A this season, and he would have to be added back to the 40-man roster in order to return to Minneapolis.

  • Twins' Kyle Garlick: Designated for assignment

    Garlick was designated for assignment by the Twins on Tuesday.

    Oliver Ortega had his contract selected from Triple-A St. Paul in a corresponding roster move. Garlick has shown promising flashes at times, but the 31-year-old outfielder heads into DFA limbo with a weak .225 batting average and .277 on-base percentage in 375 career major-league plate appearances.

  • Twins' Kyle Garlick: Optioned to Triple-A

    Garlick was optioned Tuesday to Triple-A St. Paul, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    Joey Gallo (hamstring) is back from the injured list, so Garlick gets the boot. He went 1-for-11 (.091) with zero walks and five strikeouts during his latest stay on the Twins' major-league roster.

  • Twins' Kyle Garlick: Back in big leagues

    Garlick was recalled by the Twins on Saturday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

    Garlick was optioned Monday but didn't even have to wait a full week for his next opportunity, as he's up to replace the injured Joey Gallo (hamstring). Garlick has been exactly a league-average bat in parts of five big-league season, slashing .229/.283/.449 (good for a 100 wRC+) in 364 trips to the plate. He could see playing time against lefties but is unlikely to claim an everyday role.

  • Twins' Kyle Garlick: Headed back to minors

    The Twins optioned Garlick to Triple-A St. Paul on Monday.

    The demotion of Garlick clears a spot on the Twins' 26-man active roster for infielder Royce Lewis (knee), who was reinstated from the 60-day injured list ahead of Monday's game in Houston. Following his call-up from Triple-A on May 19, Garlick had largely served as a short-side platoon outfielder for the Twins, appearing in five games while going 3-for-10 with a home run, a double, two walks and three RBI.

  • Twins' Kyle Garlick: Set to return to minors

    Garlick will be optioned to Triple-A St. Paul on Monday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

    Garlick was recalled by the Twins in mid-May, and he went 3-for-10 with a homer, a double and three RBI over five games with the big-league club. However, he'll head back to the minors since Max Kepler (hamstring) and Royce Lewis (knee) will be reinstated from the injured list Monday.

  • Twins' Kyle Garlick: Back in majors

    Garlick was recalled from Triple-A St. Paul on Friday.

    Garlick is 1-for-7 in the majors this season, although his one hit was a solo home run. He's spent most of his time with Triple-A St. Paul, where he holds a .210/.319/.410 slash line through 116 plate appearances. He will take the place of Nick Gordon (leg), who was placed on the 10-day injured list Friday. Garlick should see a fair bit of playing time as the Twins deal with injuries in the outfield and continue to deploy Byron Buxton exclusively as a DH.

  • Twins' Kyle Garlick: Could be added to roster

    Garlick will join up with the Twins ahead of Friday's series opener at the Angels, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

    Joey Gallo (shin) and Jorge Polanco (hamstring) both made early exits from Wednesday's series finale against the Dodgers, so Garlick has been summoned in the event that some roster shuffling will be required. The 31-year-old outfielder is 1-for-7 with a homer in three games this season at the MLB level. He's hit .210/.319/.410 with five homers in 26 games at Triple-A St. Paul.
