After unloading nearly half of their major league roster approaching the MLB trade deadline, the Minnesota Twins made eight roster additions Friday.

The Twins recalled six players from Triple-A St. Paul and purchased the contract of two other players to fill out the major league club in advance of a series opener Friday on the road against the Cleveland Guardians.

The recalled players were right-handers Travis Adams and Pierson Ohl, infielders Ryan Fitzgerald and Edouard Julien, outfielder Alan Roden and utility player Austin Martin. Minnesota purchased the contracts of right-handers Erasmo Ramirez and Jose Urena.

All eight players have at least one game of major league experience, though Adams, Ohl and Fitzgerald have seven games of experience combined. Ramirez has 13 years of major league experience, making 327 appearances with six clubs, while Urena has pitched for 11 seasons and has made 241 appearances for nine clubs.

Ohl returns after making his major league debut Tuesday and being optioned back to St. Paul afterward.

The Twins had the most high-profile trade of the deadline Thursday when they sent shortstop Carlos Correa back to his original club, the Houston Astros.

Minnesota also traded relievers Griffin Jax, Louis Varland, Brock Stewart and Danny Coulombe, while outfielder Harrison Bader, utility man Willi Castro and first baseman Ty France all were shipped to new clubs.

The Twins' 26-man roster is now at 25 players.
