The Twins added Lawrence to their 60-man roster pool Monday, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lawrence joined the Twins for spring training as a non-roster invitee, but he wasn't present with the team for summer camp after he wasn't among the players initially included in the 60-man pool. Now that he becomes the 59th member of the pool, Lawrence will report to the team's alternate training site and bolster the organization's pitching depth.

Lawrence agreed to a contract with the Hiroshima Toyo Carp to play in Japan in 2019.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Lawrence will head overseas to play in Nippon Professional Baseball after being granted his release by the Mariners in late November. Across 11 relief appearances in 2018, he posted a 7.33 ERA and 1.63 WHIP.

Lawrence has been granted his release from the Mariners, TJ Cotterill of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lawrence appeared in 11 games out of the bullpen for Seattle a season ago, posting a 7.33 ERA and 1.63 WHIP with 14 strikeouts across 23.1 innings. He'll look for better results overseas, likely in Japan.

Lawrence was recalled by Seattle on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The 30-year-old pitched 17.1 innings for the Mariners this season, getting knocked around for an 8.31 ERA. He'll be a low-leverage relief arm for the Mariners down the stretch.

Lawrence was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Lawrence spent five days with the Mariners, allowing three runs in three innings in his only appearance. His 8.31 ERA through 17.1 major-league innings suggests he's unlikely to be a fantasy asset if and when he returns to the big leagues. The move makes room for Robinson Cano's return from his suspension.

Lawrence was recalled from Triple-A Tacoma on Thursday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lawrence has appeared in seven games for the Mariners this season, logging a disastrous 8.16 ERA and 1.60 WHIP across 14.1 innings of relief. Look for him to be utilized in low-leverage spots while with the big-league team.

The Mariners optioned Lawrence to Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday, Greg Johns of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
After he covered 4.1 innings in long relief in Saturday's 11-5 loss to the Angels, Lawrence was unlikely to be available out of the bullpen for at least the next two games. As a result, he was an easy choice for the Mariners to send back to Triple-A in order to create room on the active roster for reliever Sam Tuivailala, who was acquired from the Cardinals on Friday.

Lawrence was recalled from Triple-A Tacoma on Friday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lawrence has a couple brief stints with the Mariners this season, and has allowed nine runs on eight hits over 10 innings. The 30-year-old has found more success for the Rainiers -- 2.81 ERA and 1.07 WHIP in 11 starts -- and seems likely to be used in low-leverage or long-relief situations out of the Mariners' bullpen.

Lawrence was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday, Shannon Drayer of 710 ESPN Seattle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lawrence lost his spot in the Mariners bullpen after the team activated Dan Altavilla (shoulder) from the 10-day disabled list Saturday ahead of the second game of a doubleheader against the Tigers. The 30-year-old Lawrence hadn't appeared in a game since May 6 and sports a 10.13 ERA and 1.75 WHIP over eight frames on the season.
