Brooks Kriske News: Claimed by Minnesota

The Twins claimed Kriske off waivers Tuesday.

The right-hander was designated for assignment by the Cubs over the weekend, and the Twins claimed him in order to round out their bullpen coming out of the trade deadline. Kriske delivered six scoreless frames with a 4:5 K:BB with Chicago and has a 3.13 ERA at the Triple-A level this season.
