The Minnesota Twins made a pitching roster adjustment Sunday, bringing left-handed pitcher Kendry Rojas back up from their Triple-A St. Paul affiliate while sending fellow southpaw Kody Funderburk down to the minor league team.
This marks Rojas’ second call-up to the major leagues this year. The young pitcher first appeared in the big leagues on April 22, where he threw two innings without giving up any runs against the New York Mets, though he surrendered two hits and issued three walks in what ended as a no-decision.
The 23-year-old Rojas has compiled a 1-1 record with a 2.20 earned run average across six outings for St. Paul, including two starts.
Meanwhile, the 29-year-old Funderburk heads back to the minors after posting a 1-1 record with one save and a 2.81 ERA through 19 relief outings this season for Minnesota. Since joining the Twins organization in 2023, Funderburk has appeared in 96 games and recorded three saves along with 20 holds.
