The Minnesota Twins have claimed Bubba Thompson off waivers from the New York Yankees.

The Twins will be Thompson's fourth different team in the last six months.

Jeter Downs and Oscar Gonzalez passed through waivers and were assigned outright to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Thompson, 25, was designated for assignment Friday to open a roster spot for Luke Weaver.

Thompson was claimed by the Yankees off waivers on Jan. 4 from the Cincinnati Reds, which claimed him on Oct. 26 from the Kansas City Royals. The Royals had claimed him from the Texas Rangers on Aug 13.
