Hendriks allowed three earned runs with five strikeouts and five walks across seven innings of work this spring with the Twins prior to Friday's release. The 37-year-old veteran has made just 19 big league appearances over the last three seasons due to multiple issues and will be in search of a new opportunity with the regular season less than one week away.

The 37-year-old Hendriks made only 14 appearances for the Red Sox last season and pitched to a 6.59 ERA in 13.2 innings. The veteran has pitched 14 seasons at the big league level and has a 3.88 ERA with 116 saves in 490 appearances. He is in Twins' camp as a non-roster invitee but, given the inexperience in the bullpen, Hendriks could break camp as a member of Minnesota's opening day roster.
