Minnesota Twins Shake Up 40-Man Roster
3 years agoThe Minnesota Twins made a number of changes to their 40-man roster Friday, outrighting pitcher Devin Smeltzer and outfielder Kyle Garlick off the roster and designating utility man Willians Astudillo and pitcher Charlie Barnes for assignment. In a corresponding move, they selected pitchers Blayne Enlow, Cole Sands, Chris Vallimont, and Josh Winder, and infielders Royce Lewis and Jose Miranda. The team's 40-man roster is now full. Of these players, Royce Lewis is clearly the most prominent prospect. The 22-year-old was the top pick in the 2017 draft, and while he missed the entirety of the 2021 season to knee surgery, the sky is still the limit for both his real life and fantasy value. He could take over the shortstop position for the big league team at some point in 2022.
