To make room for Okert on the 26-man roster, the Twins have optioned right-handed pitcher Randy Dobnak to Triple-A St. Paul. Dobnak, who had his contract selected by Minnesota on July 30, appeared in four games for the Twins, posting a 5.87 ERA (7.2 IP, 5 ER) with five walks allowed and seven strikeouts.
