DaShawn Keirsey Jr. - Jettisoned from 40-man roster The Twins designated Keirsey for assignment Friday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.
Impact The transaction frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for Alex Jackson, who was acquired via trade. Keirsey has managed just a .113/.149/.206 batting line across 102 plate appearances at the major-league level and will now go through the waivers process.
NOVEMBER 21 • ROTOWIRE
Justin Topa - Avoids arbitration with Twins The Twins and Topa avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year contract Friday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.
Impact Topa had been viewed as a non-tender candidate, but he will stick around and could be a high-leverage reliever again on Twins team unlikely to make any big offseason bullpen additions. The righty held a 3.90 ERA and 49:18 K:BB over 60 innings in 2025, posting a 46.7 percent groundball rate along the way.
NOVEMBER 21 • ROTOWIRE
Alex Jackson - Shipped to Minnesota The Twins acquired Jackson from the Orioles on Friday in exchange for Payton Eeles, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
Impact Jackson was on the non-tender bubble for the Orioles, so instead of cutting him loose, Baltimore was able to get a prospect for him. The 29-year-old catcher is a career .153/.239/.288 hitter over parts of six big-league seasons. Jackson could open next season as the Twins' backup catcher behind Ryan Jeffers.

Could Twins reunite with this reliever from the Taylor Rogers-Chris Paddack trade? If so, he likely would become the team's new closer.
NOVEMBER 19 • PUCKETTSPOND.COM
Connor Prielipp - Shielded from Rule 5 Draft The Twins selected Prielipp's contract from Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday.
Impact Prielipp spent most of the 2025 season at Double-A Wichita before receiving a promotion to St. Paul in August, where he posted a 5.14 ERA and 1.57 WHIP across 21 innings in five appearances (four starts). The 24-year-old is ineligible for the Rule 5 Draft now that he holds a spot on the Twins' 40-man roster, though he will most likely be sent back to Triple-A to begin 2026 so he can continue his development.
NOVEMBER 19 • ROTOWIRE
Andrew Morris - Receives 40-man spot The Twins selected Morris' contract from Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday.
Impact Morris spent the entirety of 2025 at St. Paul, where he turned in a 4.09 ERA and 1.34 WHIP alongside an 89:28 K:BB over 94.2 innings. His addition to the 40-man roster will grant him protection from the Rule 5 Draft in December and significantly improve his chances of winning a spot in Minnesota's rotation during spring training.
NOVEMBER 19 • ROTOWIRE
Hendry Mendez - Joins 40-man roster The Twins selected Mendez's contract from Double-A Wichita on Tuesday.
Impact Mendez spent all of 2025 in Double-A, posting a .299/.399/.439 slash line with 11 homers, 62 RBI, 68 runs scored and 10 steals over 491 plate appearances between Philadelphia's and Minnesota's affiliates. Now the owner of a 40-man roster spot, the 22-year-old doesn't have to worry about being selected in the Rule 5 Draft and can now focus on reaching Triple-A St. Paul sometime in 2026.
NOVEMBER 19 • ROTOWIRE
John Klein - Protected from Rule 5 Draft The Twins selected Klein's contract from Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday.
Impact Klein reached Triple-A toward the end of the 2025 season but struggled during his first several games with St. Paul, giving up 19 earned runs in just 25.2 innings. His place on the 40-man roster will protect him from being scooped up during the Rule 5 Draft, but he's likely to head back to the minors once the 2026 season begins.
NOVEMBER 19 • ROTOWIRE
Gabriel Gonzalez - Added to 40-man roster The Twins selected Gonzalez's contract from Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday.
Impact Gonzalez worked his way up from High-A to Triple-A by the end of the 2025 season, during which he slashed .329/.395/.513 with 15 homers, 66 RBI, 75 runs scored and eight stolen bases across 549 total plate appearances. The 21-year-old outfielder's breakout campaign will grant him protection from the Rule 5 Draft in the form of a 40-man roster spot, and he may be able to win a place on the Twins' Opening Day roster if he continues to hit well in spring training.

Twins acquire RHP Orze, add 6 prospects to 40-man roster MINNEAPOLIS -- The Twins bolstered their Major League bullpen and added six players to their 40-man roster on a busy Tuesday afternoon. Righ...
NOVEMBER 19 • MLB.COM
Eric Orze - Moved to Minnesota Tampa Bay traded Orze to the Twins on Tuesday for minor-league pitcher Jacob Kisting, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Impact Orze looked pretty good in his first extended run in the majors last season, posting a 3.02 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 40:19 K:BB over 41.2 innings across 33 appearances. He also picked up three saves and a hold. However, he spent most of the second half of the campaign in the minors after stumbling with the Rays in late June and early July. Orze has a good chance of earning a role in Minnesota's big-league bullpen for 2026, as the club is overhauling most of its relief corps.

Kendry Rojas - Gets spot on 40-man roster The Twins selected Rojas' contract from Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports.
Impact Acquired from the Blue Jays in the Louis Varland trade, Rojas struggled in eight starts for St. Paul down the stretch, holding a 6.59 ERA and 28:23 K:BB over 27.1 innings. However, the 22-year-old southpaw has swing-and-miss stuff, having fanned 90 in 69 frames between all minor-league stops in 2025. Rojas is now on the 40-man roster and protected from the Rule 5 Draft.
