Aside from the basic, offseason business (40-man roster decisions, Rule 5, arbitration), the Twins have made a handful of minor-league signings and one trade. That&#x2019;s it.&#xA0;




	So, if you&#x2019;re a Twins fan like me, I&#x2019;m su...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">17585</guid><pubDate>Tue, 07 Jan 2025 00:10:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Evaluating the Case for a Ryan Jeffers Extension</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/evaluating-the-case-for-a-ryan-jeffers-extension-r17575/</link><description>&#xA0;




	The Minnesota Twins head into the 2025 season with several decisions to make regarding their long-term roster construction. One name that has quietly emerged in this conversation is Ryan Jeffers. The 27-year-old catcher has shown promising potential in recent seasons but has yet to solidi...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">17575</guid><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jan 2025 18:19:24 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Three More Players the Minnesota Twins Should Sign to Minor-League Contracts</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/minor-league-free-agent-deals-austin-davis-bubba-thompson-harold-ramirez/</link><description>The Twins' most significant transaction this offseason has either been trading Jovani Mor&#xE1;n to the Boston Red Sox for utility infielder Mickey Gasper or signing Mike Ford to a minor-league contract. Which of the two transactions should be deemed more consequential is really in the eye of the beh...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">17586</guid><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jan 2025 16:15:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Should the Twins Acquire Catching Prospect Diego Cartaya?</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/should-the-twins-acquire-catching-prospect-diego-cartaya-r17581/</link><description>The Dodgers signed infielder Hyeseong Kim on Friday. To make room on their 40-man roster, they designated former top catching prospect Diego Cartaya for assignment, after a few rough seasons. Still just 22 years old, Cartaya will undoubtedly get a shot with another organization.

This winter, there hasn't been much in the way of news to miss.

We've seen plenty of big names sign in the first two months, including Juan Soto's historic deal with the Mets. Top free-agent starter Corbin Burnes recently inked a $210 million deal with Arizona.

(Not now, don't freak out. I'm setting a scene.) After posting four strong seasons in the Korea Baseball Organization (KBO), then-30-year-old right-handed starting pitcher Merrill Kelly has been rewarded for his efforts, signing a two-year, $5.5-million contract with the Arizon...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">17568</guid><pubDate>Fri, 03 Jan 2025 15:23:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Roki Sasaki, Veteran Trades, and Other Big Questions Facing the Twins This Offseason</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/roki-sasaki-veteran-trades-and-other-big-questions-facing-the-twins-this-offseason-r17564/</link><description>MLB&#x2019;s offseason is well underway, but many of the biggest questions remain unanswered, especially for the Twins. While some fans might be growing impatient, it&#x2019;s worth remembering that the team still has appealing options.

FanGraphs runs projections over the offseason, and currently, the Twins rank seventh among all MLB teams in projected wins above replacement.
