MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -- The Minnesota Twins have moved third baseman Brian Buscher off their 40-man roster and assigned him to Triple-A Rochester.
The move was made Tuesday. Buscher will become a minor league free agent 16 days after the end of the World Series.
Over parts of three seasons, Buscher batted .266 in 436 at-bats with
eight home runs and 69 RBIs while going back and forth between the
Rochester club and the Twins.
With Joe Crede becoming a free agent this fall following an injury-plagued year, third base is again unsettled for the Twins.

Matt Tolbert and Brendan Harris were the primary options at that
position down the stretch while Crede was hurt, and Buscher rarely
played. He hit .235 in 136 at-bats this year.
