Rotowire
The Twins optioned Ross to Triple-A St. Paul on Saturday.
The Twins promoted Ross from Triple-A when rosters expanded at the beginning of September, but he's since appeared in only three games and struck out three times in his four at-bats. He'll now return to the minors to make room for Emmanuel Rodriguez, who was recalled from St. Paul in a corresponding move.
The Twins selected Ross's contract from Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday.
Ross has slashed .274/.378/.506 with 20 homers and 20 steals between Double-A Wichita and St. Paul this season to earn his first big-league promotion. The 25-year-old can play all over the diamond, giving the Twins depth at multiple positions.
