Twins recall Louie Varland

News summary

The Minnesota Twins have recalled right-handed pitcher Louie Varland from Triple-A St. Paul for the sixth time this season, as he is expected to pitch in bulk relief during Wednesday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Varland has struggled this season, holding a 6.14 ERA over 36.2 innings with an 0-5 record, but recent performances in the minors suggest he may be more effective in relief. He will follow starter Ronny Henriquez, who is anticipated to pitch one or two innings before Varland takes over. The Twins optioned Diego Castillo back to St. Paul to make room for Varland, as Castillo had only pitched one inning in his brief stint with the team. With limited off days remaining in the regular season, Varland's role could help provide additional rest for other starters as the playoffs approach. A strong showing in this outing could solidify Varland's position on the roster moving forward.
