Jensen cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A St. Paul by the Twins on Tuesday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.
Jensen is no longer on the Twins' 40-man roster, but he'll remain with the organization and will be in major-league camp this spring. The 26-year-old split the 2023 season between the Double- and Triple-A levels, posting a 5.32 ERA and 78:54 K:BB over 64.1 frames.

Twins' Ryan Jensen: Nabbed by Twins on waivers
Rotowire
The Twins claimed Jensen off waivers from the Marlins on Thursday, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
A first-round pick in the 2019 Draft, Jensen made a full-time move to relief in the minors last season, striking out 55 over 44 innings out of the bullpen but also walking 37 while posting a 5.32 ERA. He has a big arm, so the Twins felt he was worth a roll of the dice in hopes that he'll be able to find the strike zone more consistently.

Jensen was optioned to Double-A Tennessee on Friday.
Jensen spent all of last season with Double-A Tennessee, logging a 4.25 ERA and 1.39 WHIP through 59.1 innings. If the 25-year-old righty can manage to improve upon his numbers from last season, there's a chance he cracks the Triple-A level at some point in 2023.

Cubs' Ryan Jensen: Joins 40-man roster
Rotowire
Jensen was added to the Cubs' 40-man roster Tuesday.
Jensen spent 2022 with Double-A Tennessee, recording a 4.25 ERA and 1.39 WHIP over 59.1 innings spanning 17 starts. Jensen's biggest issue last season was walking too many batters, recording a 5.9 BB/9. If he can bring that number down and maintain his solid strikeout rate (9.1 K/9 in 2022), the 24-year-old righty could see big-league action within a few years.
