The move is retroactive to May 23.
Liriano has compiled a 3-5 record with a 5.73 earned run average in nine starts this season. He pitched the fifth no-hitter in Minnesota Twins history on May 3 against the White Sox.
To replace Liriano on the roster, the Twins will recall pitcher Anthony Slama from Triple-A Rochester.
