  • Twins' Emmanuel Rodriguez: Undergoes thumb surgery

    Rodriguez recently underwent surgery to repair a ligament tear in his right thumb, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    Twins president of baseball operations Derek Falvey indicated Wednesday it was a cleanup procedure that Rodriguez had and the expectation is the young outfielder will be ready for spring training. Rodriguez was limited to just 47 games in 2024 due to the nagging thumb issue. The 21-year-old ended the season at Triple-A St. Paul and is already on the 40-man roster, so he could push to debut in 2025.

  • Twins' Royce Lewis: Could see more action at keystone

    Lewis could be used more at second base next season, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune reports.

    Lewis made one start at the keystone for the Twins in September, his first there at the major-league level. The 25-year-old has graded out well in terms of range at third base but has struggled with his throwing, so second base could be a better fit. How much time Lewis ultimately spends at second base in 2025 might depend on how the Minnesota roster shakes out over the winter.

  • Twins' Jorge Alcala: Option exercised

    The Twins exercised Alcala's $1.5 million club option for 2025, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

    Alcala spent some time in the minors in 2024 but pitched well over 58.1 innings with the Twins, posting a 3.24 ERA and 58:20 K:BB over 58.1 frames. He'll be used in middle relief in 2025.

  • Twins' Yunior Severino: Sent outright to Triple-A

    The Twins outrighted Severino to Triple-A St. Paul on Monday, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

  • Twins' Daniel Duarte: Removed from 40-man roster

    The Twins outrighted Duarte (elbow) to Triple-A St. Paul on Monday, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

  • Twins' Randy Dobnak: Jettisoned from 40-man roster

    The Twins outrighted Dobnak to Triple-A St. Paul on Monday, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    It's not the first time Dobnak has been outrighted, so he has the option to elect free agency. If he doesn't he'll represent rotation depth at St. Paul, where he held a 4.25 ERA and 1.45 WHIP with 134 strikeouts over 133.1 innings in 2024.

  • Twins' Scott Blewett: Outrighted to Triple-A

    The Twins outrighted Blewett to Triple-A St. Paul on Monday, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    He's been outrighted before, so Blewett could elect free agency if he wants. The reliever made 12 appearances for the Twins in 2024, posting a 1.77 ERA and 18:8 K:BB over 20.1 frames.

  • Twins' Bailey Ober: Loses three of final four starts

    Ober (12-9) was saddled with the loss Sunday, allowing three runs on five hits over five innings against the Orioles. He struck out four.

    Ober held the Orioles off the board through four innings but yielded a three-run blast to James McCann with one out in the fifth that erased a two-run lead. Ober ended the season on a sour note, losing three of his last four starts while compiling a 5.32 ERA over 23.2 innings. However, the righty finished the 2024 campaign with 12 wins and 191 strikeouts over 178.2 innings, and he was fifth in the majors with a 1.00 WHIP -- making his 3.98 ERA feel a bit unlucky.

  • Twins' Byron Buxton: Out again for finale

    Buxton is not in Sunday's lineup against the Orioles.

    Buxton also sat out Saturday after the Twins' playoff hopes were dashed. He played in more games (105) this season than he has since he played a career-high 140 games in 2017. Buxton has a no-trade clause, so he'll be back to patrol center field in 2025.
