Connor Gillispie News: Scrubbed from 40-man roster

The Twins designated Gillispie for assignment Monday.

The transaction clears a spot on the 40-man roster for right-hander Michael Tonkin, who was called up from Triple-A St. Paul. Gillispie was a waiver claim of the Twins in late June but has been hammered for 22 runs over 13.2 innings during his time with St. Paul.
