Released by Minnesota The Twins released Severino on Tuesday, Theodore Tollefson of Zone Coverage reports.

Impact Severino clubbed 56 home runs over the previous two seasons between Double-A Wichita and Triple-A St. Paul, but he's slashed just .196/.344/.324 with two long balls and a 35.2 percent strikeout rate this season with St. Paul. He's still just 25 and has big raw power, so Severino shouldn't have trouble getting a shot in a new organization.

Up to 35 homers Severino has hit .272 with 35 home runs in 120 games across stops at Double-A and Triple-A this season.

Impact A former middle infielder, Severino is now a power-hitting corner infielder, splitting time at Triple-A primarily between first base and third base. His 36.1 percent hart-hit rate, 12.2 percent soft-hit rate and 113.1 mph max exit velocity are elite marks, but Severino's 36.6 percent strikeout rate at Triple-A is a pretty big red flag. The Twins will need to add him to the 40-man roster this offseason if they want to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.
