The Minnesota Twins announced today that they have claimed infielder Taylor Motter off waivers from the Seattle Mariners. Motter, who was most recently with Triple-A Tacoma, appeared in eight games for the Mariners this season, hitting .267 (4-for-15) with one home run and two walks. 
Motter was originally drafted by Tampa Bay in the 17th round of the 2011 First-Year Player Draft and has played parts of three seasons at the major league level with the Rays and Mariners. He will report to Triple-A Rochester.
The Twins roster is now at 40.
