Instead, the winter delivered a surprising shakeup. After the Pohlad family sold minority shares of the franchise, leadership within the organization shifted in ways many did not expect.

Three homers and a triple will draw plenty of headlines. Fedko is more than just a player who had one good day at Triple-A, however, and he's a strong candidate to help the Twins&#x2019; mismatched roster fit together better.

In the opening 16 games, five different pitchers have recorded saves, and there&#x2019;s no sign that anyone will take hold of the role more firmly any time soon.

He was everywhere&#x2014;on base all the time, and a pest once he got there. It got him drafted fifth overall in the 2020 MLB Draft, by the Toronto Blue Jays.
