The San Diego Padres added to their catching depth on Friday.
General manager A.J. Preller announced the club has claimed catcher Josmil Pinto off waivers from the Minnesota Twins.
Pinto, 26, didn't appear in the bigs in 2015 while dealing with recurring concussion symptoms.
He did make 263 plate appearances for the Twins' Triple-A affiliate in Rochester, hitting .228/.304/.354 with seven home runs and 31 RBIs.
In 78 career major-league games, Pinto owns a .257/.339/.445 hitting line with 11 home runs and 30 RBIs.
