Twins' Austin Martin: Stuffs stat sheet in win
Martin went 4-for-5 with a home run, a double, a stolen base and two additional runs scored in Monday's 9-5 win over the Orioles.
Martin was a thorn in the side of Baltimore pitching out of the leadoff spot, showing off both power and speed Monday. It was his first four-hit attack of the campaign as well as the first time he's homered and swiped a bag in a game this season. Martin has an .809 OPS in 120 at-bats versus left-handed pitchers as opposed to a .587 OPS over 157 at-bats against right-handers, and his lack of success against righties should continue to inhibit his fantasy upside.

Twins' Dean Kremer: Dominates former team in win
Kremer (2-4) earned the win against the Orioles on Monday, allowing one run on one hit and one walk in seven innings. He struck out seven.
Facing the team that traded him away a bit over a week ago, Kremer looked very comfortable on the mound against his former Baltimore teammates. The right-hander poured in 60 of his 89 offerings for strikes, putting together his longest outing of the year in his first quality start since July 1 versus the White Sox. Kremer has conceded just a pair of runs in his first 12 innings for the Twins, and he'll try to further improve his 5.25 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 47:14 K:BB over 48 frames in 2026 this weekend against Philadelphia.

Twins' Emmanuel Rodriguez: Set to rejoin Triple-A lineup
Triple-A St. Paul reinstated Rodriguez (thumb) from the 60-day injured list Monday, Theodore Tollefson of ZoneCoverage.com reports.
Rodriguez is poised to return to the St. Paul lineup Tuesday for what will be his first appearance at the Triple-A level since May 1, as he's been shelved for more than three months while recovering from left thumb surgery. The 23-year-old outfielder proved his health in an extended rehab assignment between the Single-A and High-A levels, during which he slashed .267/.421/.367 with two extra-base hits and seven walks over nine games.

Twins' Austin Martin: Handling leadoff role Monday
Martin will start in left field and bat leadoff in Monday's game against the Orioles.
Martin has now made seven of his last eight starts out of the leadoff spot, as the Twins continue to deploy him as their table setter versus left-handed starting pitchers. The 27-year-old has produced an impressive 124 wRC+ in 150 plate appearances versus lefties, but his struggles against right-handed pitching (.224/.303/.276 slash line, 67 wRC+ over 175 plate appearances) will hinder his efforts to break out of a short-side platoon role.

Twins' Alan Roden: Exits lineup with lefty starting
Roden is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Orioles.
The left-handed-hitting Roden will hit the bench for the third time in four games, with each of his absences coming against left-handed starting pitchers. Roden has gone just 7-for-41 (.171 average) versus righties this season, but he could nonetheless be in store for a strong-side platoon role in the Minnesota outfield while Byron Buxton (hip) remains on the injured list.

Twins' Trevor Larnach: Day off with lefty starting
Larnach is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Orioles.
Left-hander Trevor Rogers is on the hill for the Orioles in the series opener, so the Twins will send Larnach and fellow left-handed hitters Kody Clemens and Alan Roden to the bench to stock up on some extra right-handed bats. Austin Martin will replace Larnach in left field and will bat leadoff Monday.

Twins' Kody Clemens: Idle against southpaw Monday
Clemens is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Orioles.
Left-hander Trevor Rogers is on the hill for the Orioles in the series opener, so the Twins will send Clemens and fellow left-handed hitters Trevor Larnach and Alan Roden to the bench to stock up on some extra right-handed bats. Clemens owns a 76 wRC+ against left-handed pitching over parts of five seasons in the majors but has been more effective in those matchups in 2026, slashing .229/.282/.448 over 104 plate appearances.

Twins' Emmanuel Rodriguez: Resumes rehab assignment
Rodriguez (thumb) has gone 6-for-19 with a double, seven walks, three RBI and one run in six games for High-A Cedar Rapids since resuming his rehab assignment Tuesday.
Rodriguez remains on Triple-A St. Paul's 60-day injured list while he makes his way back from the surgery he underwent on his left thumb in late May, but he looks to be closing in on a return to International League action. The 23-year-old outfielder experienced soreness in his thumb coming out of a July 30 rehab game at Single-A Fort Myers, but he was cleared to return to action with Cedar Rapids after four days of rest and recovery.

Twins' Kyler Fedko: Out for season with knee injury
Fedko announced via his personal Instagram account that he underwent season-ending surgery Friday to repair a torn ACL, MCL and LCL in his left knee, Bobby Nightengale of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports. Triple-A St. Paul placed him on its 7-day injured list Aug. 3.
Fedko sustained the multi-ligament injury while playing forA St. Paul on Aug. 2, when he went down while pursing a flyball in the outfield. The 26-year-old got the chance to make his big-league debut earlier in the summer, going 0-for-16 with two walks, one run and one RBI in 14 games for the Twins before being optioned to Triple-A on July 10. Given the nature of his knee surgery, Fedko's availability for the start of spring training could be affected, and the injury may also influence the Twins' decision to tender him a contract heading into 2027.

Twins' Cody Laweryson: Re-signs, placed on Triple-A IL
Laweryson re-signed Friday with the Twins on a minor-league contract and was placed on Triple-A St. Paul's 7-day injured list due to right shoulder impingement.
Laweryson had been residing on St. Paul's IL with the same injury since the All-Star break before the Twins designated him for assignment earlier this month. After clearing waivers, Laweryson was released by the Twins and sat on the open market for a few days before returning to Minnesota on a new deal. The reliever had posted a 4.86 ERA and 1.38 WHIP in 16.2 innings at the big-league level earlier this season.

Twins' Connor Prielipp: Fans seven in no-decision
Prielipp took a no-decision against the Brewers on Sunday, allowing three runs on five hits and two walks in five innings. He struck out seven.
Prielipp bookended his outing poorly, serving up a Jackson Chourio home run in the first inning before coughing up two more runs in the fifth, but he did register 15 whiffs Sunday. The seven punchouts were the southpaw's most since June 28 versus the Rockies, which also represents his last quality start. Prielipp will be tough to trust when he brings a shaky 4.79 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 88:32 K:BB over 82.2 innings into his next scheduled outing at home against Philadelphia.

Twins' Ryan Jeffers: Resting Sunday
Jeffers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers.
Victor Caratini will receive a turn behind the dish while Jeffers rest for the series finale. Jeffers started behind the plate in the Twins' previous two contests and went 2-for-8 with a double, two walks, two runs and an RBI.

Twins' Kaelen Culpepper: Receiving Sunday off
Culpepper is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers.
The 23-year-old started at shortstop in his first two MLB games after being called up Friday, and he'll get a break Sunday after going 2-for-5 with a walk, two hit-by-pitches and solo home run. Ryan Kreidler will handle shortstop for the Twins in the series finale.

Twins' Taj Bradley: Fans seven in no-decision
Bradley took a no-decision against the Brewers on Saturday, allowing three runs on five hits and two walks in five innings. He struck out seven.
Bradley had some strong swing-and-miss stuff going, inducing 13 whiffs on top of his seven punchouts, but it wasn't enough to help him log what would've been his fourth straight quality start. The right-hander continues to be a reliable rotation piece for the Twins, working at least five innings in 11 consecutive outings. Bradley will take a career-best 3.76 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 148:55 K:BB over 131.2 innings into his next scheduled appearance against Philadelphia.

Twins' Yoendrys Gomez: Notches save No. 16
Gomez struck out one batter in a perfect ninth inning to collect his 16th save of the season in Friday's 8-6 win over Milwaukee.
Gomez began the frame with a six-pitch strikeout of Jake Bauers and needed just six more pitches to collect the final two outs of the game. He's now tallied a save in back-to-back games and still seems to be the team's preferred closer despite the addition of Jeff Hoffman at the trade deadline.
