Instead, they tendered him a contract in the fall,...19689Tue, 27 Jan 2026 12:31:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-joe-ryan-agree-to-face-saving-deal-to-avoid-arbitration-r19690/The Twins and righthander Joe Ryan agreed to a one-year deal to avoid arbitration Monday, according to Jon Heyman of the New York Post. Ryan will earn $6.1 million in 2026, and the Twins hold a $13-million club option for 2027, with a $100,000 buyout.

Sometimes that has meant platoons. Other times, it has meant defensive flexibility or depth over star power. This offseason, a clear pattern is emerging. Minnesota appears to be leaning h...19661Mon, 26 Jan 2026 17:27:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/taylor-rogers-brings-more-than-left-handed-relief-to-2026-twins-r19683/Taylor Rogers has accrued nine years and 145 days of MLB service time—just 27 days short of collecting his pension.

With roughly three weeks remaining before players report to Fort Myers, the front office has made it clear that the current roster is more of a foundation than a final product. Minnesota is comfortable waiting, watching, and pouncin...19687Sun, 25 Jan 2026 23:03:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-twins-updated-bullpen-puzzle-is-still-missing-pieces-r19684/For months, the Twins bullpen has felt less like a plan and more like a collection of possibilities. That changed this week. The Twins made an important move on Thursday by reportedly reuniting with former All-Star reliever Taylor Rogers on a one-year, $2 million deal.
