Albers (1-2) took the loss Thursday against Cleveland, yielding three runs on six hits and four walks over four innings. He struck out a pair.
Albers, who needed 98 pitches to get 12 outs, allowed a two-run homer to Franmil Reyes in the third inning and a solo blast to Oscar Mercado in the fourth. The journeyman left-hander has been rocked for 12 runs and 16 hits in seven innings of work over his last two starts. Albers joined the rotation when Randy Dobnak (finger) went on the injured list, but his last two outings may force the Twins to consider other options the next time through.
