Varland will be called up from Triple-A St. Paul to start Wednesday on the road against the Yankees, Patrick Reusse of 1500 AM ESPN Twin Cities reports.
Varland, 24, logged a 3.34 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 119 strikeouts in 105 innings at Double-A Wichita before recently getting a promotion to Triple-A. He was dominant for St. Paul, giving up just four earned runs with a 0.85 WHIP and 27:3 K:BB in 21.1 innings across four starts. There's no reason he can't stick in the rotation over the rest of the season if he pitches fairly well in his MLB debut.
