Wisler was claimed off waivers by the Twins on Tuesday, Brandon Warne of ZoneCoverage.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old recorded a 5.61 ERA with a 63:16 K:BB in 51.1 innings pitched last season between the Padres and Mariners, but was designated for assignment by the Mariners as they clear roster space. Wisler will provide some versatility to the Twins' pitching staff, as he has experience as a starter and reliever in the majors.

Wisler (1-2) was charged with the loss in an extra-innings defeat at the hands of the Astros on Thursday, allowing a game-winning two-run home run and a walk while also recording a strikeout over one-third of an inning.
EDGE Analysis
Tasked with preserving a 9-9 tie upon entering in the bottom of the 13th inning, Wisler promptly issued a leadoff walk to Jake Marisnick before getting a swinging strikeout of Jose Altuve. However, Michael Brantley subsequently squared up on Wisler's first offering, a 92 mph fastball, and sent it 409 feet to right field to end the marathon. September hasn't been kind to Wisler thus far, as he's allowed four earned runs over 1.2 innings across a pair of appearances, despite Brantley's homer qualifying as the only hit the right-handed reliever has allowed.

Wisler (1-1) was credited with his fourth hold but also charged with a loss against the Cubs on Monday, allowing two earned runs on two walks while also recording three strikeouts across 1.1 innings.
EDGE Analysis
Wisler managed the rather unlikely feat of surrendering a pair of runs while not allowing any hits, although both crossed the plate after he'd left the game. Wisler has been charged with multiple earned runs in two of his last five appearances overall, but he's been reliable otherwise in the second half. The right-hander has four holds and a win since the All-Star break while also generating a respectable 3.93 ERA and .225 BAA across 18.1 innings.

Wisler (1-0) allowed a hit and struck out one over two-thirds of an inning, earning in the win in Friday's 7-4 win over the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Wisler did allow an inherited runner to score, which tied the game, but the right-hander became the pitcher of record as the Mariners rallied for three runs in the bottom half of the sixth inning. He's pitched to a 1.80 ERA and 0.93 WHIP with 18 strikeouts in 15 innings in 14 appearances -- seven as an opener -- with the Mariners.

Wisler served as the opener in a win over the Rays on Tuesday, firing a scoreless first inning during which he allowed a hit and issued a walk.
EDGE Analysis
Wisler ended up throwing 26 pitches during his one frame due to some control issues, but he was able to extend his scoreless streak as an opener this season to nine innings. The right-hander also boasts a .133 BAA and has allowed just one extra-base hit, a double, in that capacity.

Wisler struck out two in a scoreless inning Friday night against the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Wisler opened Friday's contest, and he did his job before the Mariners turned the ball over to Wade LeBlanc. The 26-year-old right-hander has now turned in nine consecutive scoreless outings, fanning 13 while walking none over that stretch (10.1 innings). Wisler sports a 4.25 ERA and 1.30 WHIP with 50 strikeouts over 42.1 innings this season.
