Twins Video
Ryan Fitzgerald was born on June 17, 1994 in Hinsdale, Illinois.
He went undrafted out of Creighton University in 2016. Fitzgerald played in various independent leagues until signing a minor league deal with the Boston Red Sox in May of 2018. He reached Triple-A in 2023, and eventually moved onto the Kansas City Royals farm system in 2024. The Minnesota Twins signed him to a minor league deal in 2025.
Fitzgerald made his Major League debut for the Twins on May 16, 2025. He appeared in just two games, going 0-for-3 with a run scored. They optioned him back to Triple-A, and re-called him in early August following a massive trade deadline selloff. Fitzgerald appeared in 22 games for Minnesota between August and September, slashing .209/.320/.488 (.808) with four home runs and nine RBI.
The Twins designated Fitzgerald for assignment on January 2, 2026.
