Eligibility
The Minnesota Twins have optioned pitcher Brent Headrick to Triple-A St. Paul.
Fantasy Impact
Headrick was optioned to make room for right-hander Bailey Ober who will start Friday's game against the White Sox. The left-hander sports a 6.31 ERA and 25.6% K% across 14 relief outings with the Twins this season along with a 5.04 ERA across 17 appearances (12 starts) with St. Paul.
Brent Headrick recorded a save for the Twins Wednesday, allowing one run on one hit while also walking two and striking out three over three innings in a 10-4 win over the Red Sox.
Fantasy Impact
Headrick was impressive in his first appearance for the Twins Wednesday, allowing a .143 BABIP taking over for Joe Ryan against the Red Sox. The right-hander projects as a starting pitcher for the most part and is best left off rosters for fantasy managers while monitoring moving forward.
