Jose Miranda Diagnosed With Jaw Contusion
3 years agoMinnesota Twins infielder Jose Miranda has a jaw contusion, according to manager Rocco Baldelli. The 23-year-old left Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Pittsburgh Pirates after he was hit by a ball on the basepaths. There were concerns that he experienced a concussion, but those concerns are gone and he shouldn't miss much action. Miranda hasn't had much luck this spring, hitting just .222 with a .495 OPS across nine games. He's ranked third by MLB.com on the Twins prospect list and should make his major league debut at some point in 2022. Steamer projects Miranda for a .280 batting average with nine home runs and one stolen base over 62 games next season. He probably won't play much of a factor in fantasy leagues this year, but is a good player to target in dynasty leagues.
