Casey Legumina was the Twins eighth-round draft pick in 2019 out of Gonzaga University. A native of Arizona, Legumina, he was drafted out of high school by Toronto. He went to college and was Cleveland's 35th round pick in 2018 after he went 3-3 with 13 saves in 26 games out of the bullpen. He went back to school and shifted to being a starter. He made four starts before a forearm injury ended his season.

Unfortunately, he didn't pitch for the Twins that summer, and with the missed 2020 season, he is looking forward to making his professional debut. We'll talk to him about what has kept him busy, what he's been working on, a little on his youth ball days and much more.
