Twins designated C Alex Jackson for assignment.

Since being readded to the Twins roster five weeks ago, Jackson had gone 1-for-3 with a walk and caught a total of five innings in three games the Twins won a combined 34-3. He’s actually hit .304/.342/.406 in 73 plate appearances in the majors this season, but given that he cleared waivers last month, no one seems to be taking that seriously.
