The Minnesota Twins acquired right-hander Michael Tonkin from the New York Mets for cash considerations Tuesday.
To make room for Tonkin on the 26-man roster, the Twins placed outfielder Max Kepler on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to Sunday) with a right knee contusion.
The Minnesota Twins put oft-injured infielder Royce Lewis on the injured list with what the club called "a severe quad strain" on Saturday, and the reigning AL Central champions are preparing to be without him for more than a month.
The Minnesota Twins will begin the season without closer Jhoan Duran.
The reliever is dealing with a moderate oblique strain.
Duran had 27 saves last season for the Twins.
Royce Lewis is open to discussing a long-term deal with the Minnesota Twins, according to a report.
However, there is no indication that the two sides have talked yet.
The Twins have cut payroll from $154 million last Opening Day to a projected $120 million or so in 2024, likely because of uncertainty with Bally Sports.
Lewis was the No. 1 overall pick in 2017.
The Los Angeles Dodgers are trading outfielder Manuel Margot to the Minnesota Twins and plan to sign free agent super utility man Kiké Hernández to a one-year contract once the trade is finalized, sources told ESPN.
After shopping Margot in recent days, the Dodgers struck a deal to send the Twins the 29-year-old outfielder and shortstop prospect Rayne Doncon for shortstop prospect Noah Miller.
The Major League Baseball Players Association is considering a formal complaint on the grounds that Minnesota Twins executive chair Joe Pohlad, nephew of owner Jim Pohlad, recently "violated a reservation of rights clause with the use of media in the collective bargaining agreement" during a local radio appearance, according to a report.
Last week, Pohlad addressed the Twins' free-agent plans during an interview with WCCO-AM Radio's Jason DeRusha: "We're not going to go out and spend $30 million on a player right now," he said. "The players that are out there right now that probably a bunch of fans are talking about, we are not in the market for those players."
The Minnesota Twins haven't gained any traction on a Christian Vazquez trade, according to a report.
Vazquez lost the starting job to Ryan Jeffers last season and the catcher is owed $20 million over 2024-25.
Shedding Vazquez's salary would allow the Twins to allocate money elsewhere on the roster.
A day after losing to Minnesota in salary arbitration, utilityman Nick Gordon was traded from the Twins to the Miami Marlins on Sunday for left-handed reliever Steven Okert.
Nick Gordon lost his salary arbitration case against the Minnesota Twins on Saturday and will get a raise from $735,400 to $900,000 rather than his request for $1.25 million.
