The Twins recalled Adams from Triple-A St. Paul on Sunday.
The right-hander was optioned to St. Paul after Thursday's loss to the White Sox but will quickly return to the big-league roster with Bailey Ober (elbow) headed to the injured list. Adams has struggled in seven MLB appearances this year, posting a 7.20 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 12:5 K:BB over 10 innings.
