Cody Laweryson, a right-hander who made five relief appearances for the Twins in September, was claimed off waivers Thursday by the Los Angeles Angels.

Laweryson, 27, pitched a total of 7⅔ innings. He gave up one earned run, didn’t walk a batter and struck out seven. He was a 14th round pick by Minnesota in the 2019 amateur draft.

In 34 combined relief appearances for Class AA Wichita and AAA St. Paul last season, he was 2-4 with a 2.86 earned-run average with 35 strikeouts and 42 hits in 43 innings.
