Eligibility
Chris Paddack and the Minnesota Twins have agreed on a three-year contract extension.
Fantasy Impact
The 27-year-old underwent Tommy John surgery back in May and is expected to return sometime in the second half of 2023. He had a 4.03 ERA (3.10 xERA) and a 20/2 K/BB ratio in 22.1 innings in 2022. He showed some promise in his brief stint with the Twins, and the Twins are clearly showing confidence in him by giving him a multi-year extension.
The Twins placed Chris Paddack on the IL with right elbow inflammation on Tuesday. The team called up Jharel Cotton from Triple-A to take Paddack's place on the roster.
Fantasy Impact
Paddack is reportedly seeking multiple opinions on his elbow and surgery is a possibility. That almost certainly means that Paddack's recovery is likely to take weeks, if not months, and fantasy managers should prepare themselves for a lengthy absence. The Twins should provide further updates as news comes out.
