Brooks Lee - Falls into reserve roleLee is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Guardians.

ImpactLee is on the bench for the second time in three games and looks to have moved into a utility role following Carlos Correa's return from the injured list Saturday. With Correa set to reclaim an everyday role at shortstop, Lee could see more opportunities at second base moving forward, though the Twins appear to be favoring a lefty/righty platoon of Edouard Julien and Kyle Farmer for the time being.

Edouard Julien - On bench Monday vs. leftyJulien is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Guardians.

ImpactThe lefty-hitting Julien will remain on the bench for a second straight game, this time against a lefty (Matthew Boyd) after he was out of the lineup against Reds righty Rhett Lowder on Sunday. Julien should still see the bulk of the starts at second base until Max Kepler (knee) returns from the injured list, at which point super-utility man Willi Castro may see fewer opportunities in the outfield and instead find a home at the keystone.

Twins claim pitcher Cole Irvin off waivers from BaltimoreCole Irvin has been a starter for part of his big-league career, but was designated for assignment by the Orioles.

SEPTEMBER 16•STARTRIBUNE.COM

Randy Dobnak - Exits 40-man rosterThe Twins designated Dobnak for assignment Monday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

ImpactThe transaction frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for Cole Irvin, who has been claimed off waivers. Dobnak made it back to the majors briefly in 2024 for the first time since 2021, allowing five runs over 7.2 frames covering four relief appearances. Given his $2.25 million salary, Dobnak is a good bet to pass through waivers unclaimed.
