Clemens delivered a big hit for the Twins in the sixth inning, taking Hunter Dobbins deep for a two-run blast to take the lead. The 28-year-old utility man has started three of the last four games since joining the Twins in a trade from the Phillies and should continue to mix in at first base, second base, and outfield.

Clemens jumps directly to Minnesota’s active roster in the wake of top prospect Luke Keaschall suffering a fractured right forearm during Friday’s series opener against the Angels. The 28-year-old infielder was removed from Philadelphia’s roster earlier this week after going 0-for-6 in limited action. He’s merely emergency bench depth at this stage of his career.

No word yet on what the Phillies will receive in return, though it’ll probably just be cash after Clemens had been designated for assignment earlier in the week. The 28-year-old is a career .197/.244/.367 hitter with 14 homers and 48 RBI in 376 at-bats at the big league level.

Clemens didn’t get a single start over the first four weeks and wound up 0-for-6 with a walk off the bench. He has enough left-handed pop that another team might want him as a bench guy, but he’s just a .197/.244/.367 hitter in 402 major league plate appearances to date.
