    The Minnesota Twins have made another roster move ahead of Wednesday's series finale against the Atlanta Braves.

    The team optioned pitcher Caleb Boushley, who was added to the roster Tuesday afternoon and then pitched two scoreless innings in relief in the Twins' 8-6 loss, to Triple-A St. Paul.

    That allowed the Twins to activate reliever Michael Tonkin, whom they claimed off waivers on Tuesday. It's Tonkin's second stint with Minnesota this season.
