Twins claim OF Jordan Luplow off waivers from Blue Jays

The Minnesota Twins have claimed outfielder Jordan Luplow after he was designated for project by the Blue Jays.

The Blue Jays had acquired Luplow off waivers from the Atlanta Braves on April 5. The 29-year-old slashed .214/.353/.567 with a single RBI over seven appearances with the Blue Jays.

The workforce designated Luplow for project on Tuesday to make room on the 40-man roster after buying shortstop Paul DeJong on the commerce deadline.

Right-handed pitcher Mitch White, who was designated for project to make room for the newly acquired Jordan Hicks, cleared waivers and has been assigned to Triple-A Buffalo.
