FORT MYERS, Fla. -- The Twins made a few roster moves on Sunday, granting outfielder Drew Stubbs his unconditional release and reassigning right-hander Drew Rucinski to Minor League camp.

Stubbs, competing for a role as a backup outfielder, struggled to make contact this spring, hitting .139 with 15 strikeouts in 36 at-bats. He was due a $100,000 retention bonus if kept on the roster past Tuesday's deadline as an Article XX(B) free agent.
