Rotoworld Player News

Germán Márquez

MIN Starting Pitcher #33

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Twins signed RHP Germán Márquez to a minor league contract.

The 31-year-old righty was released by the Padres last weekend after posting a 5.26 ERA, and a 37/24 K/BB ratio over 53 innings of work. He’ll add rotation depth for the Twins.
Byron Buxton

MIN Center Fielder #25

Twins activated OF Byron Buxton from the 10-day injured list.

He’ll serve as the 27th man for today’s game in Iowa, and we’re presuming will stick around afterwards. Buxton missed about two weeks with his latest hip impingement and has been hampered by the hip all season; start him while he’s healthy.
Walker Jenkins

MIN Center Fielder

Twins OF prospect Walker Jenkins went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double, and two RBI for Triple-A St. Paul on Wednesday.

Jenkins has been producing consistently since the middle of July, but he’s now 13-for-35 (.371) in August with two home runs, four RBI, five runs scored, and three steals. If the Twins are really making a run at the postseason, they should probably give him a shot in the outfield.
Alan Roden

MIN Right Fielder #18

Alan Roden went 3-for-3 with two doubles and a walk Wednesday in the Twins’ 7-5 takedown of the Orioles.

Roden, called up five weeks ago, was just 10-for-52 with one extra-base hit in 23 games, putting his roster spot in jeopardy. This will help keep him there against right-handers for now, but the lack of homers or steals makes him pretty irrelevant for fantasy purposes. He’s collected a total of two home runs and one stolen base in 218 major league plate appearances since debuting with the Blue Jays last year.
Zebby Matthews

MIN Starting Pitcher #52

Zebby Matthews picked up his sixth win after allowing four runs in five innings Wednesday against the Orioles.

Dylan Beavers’ three-run homer in the third was the big blow. However, the Twins immediately picked him up with four runs in the bottom of the inning and had a 7-4 lead when he departed after five. It’s Matthews’ second straight win after he went 0-3 in five starts in July. He’ll take a 5.34 ERA into his next start against the Braves.
Yoendrys Gómez

MIN Relief Pitcher #94

Yoendrys Gómez recorded his 17th save despite giving up a solo homer Wednesday against the Orioles.

Gómez walked the next batter after the Leody Taveras homer, but he then got a liner back to the mound that he turned into a double play, followed by a groundout. It’s the third time in five appearances this month that Gomez has allowed a run, though one of those was just the automatic runner in the 10th. He still hasn’t blown a save chance this year.
Bailey Ober

MIN Starting Pitcher #17

Bailey Ober was charged for five runs in six innings and picked up a loss versus the Orioles on Tuesday.

Ober allowed three homers in the game, and two of them came in the first two innings, both two-run shots. It’s pretty hard to overcome that, and while he gave up just one more run — another homer — the damage was done. Ober just hasn’t shown any consistency in 2026, and now has a 4.64 ERA on the season. He’s set to face Atlanta on Monday.
Reid Detmers

LAA Starting Pitcher #48

The Athletic’s Dan Hayes reported that the “Twins also were in discussions for Reid Detmers and Jose Soriano.”

Those are some interesting names to hear that the Twins were in trade deadline discussions for because the only starting pitcher they wound up acquiring was Dean Kremer. It’s unclear if the Twins balked at the Angels’ asking price or if the Twins were interested in other starting pitchers across the league, but they seemed to want to take a big swing with their rotation, and it just didn’t pan out.
Joe Ryan

MIN Starting Pitcher #41

Joe Ryan (glute) threw on flat ground on Monday.

Ryan was placed on the injured list with a glute strain on Friday, so it’s good news that he’s already throwing. Of course, throwing off flat ground means he’s not pushing off in the same way he would on a mound, which would test his glute a bit more. We may be looking at a minimum stay on the IL for Ryan, but he’ll need to progress to a mound at some point this week.
Byron Buxton

MIN Center Fielder #25

Byron Buxton (hip) took pre-game batting practice on Monday.

Buxton has been on the injured list with a hip impingement since July 29th. He also had an injection to help him battle through his lingering issue. However, reports were that the batting practice session went well, so the 32-year-old could be close to returning. It remains to be seen if the Twins will want to send him out on a rehab assignment.
