Availability
Outfielder DaShawn Keirsey has been reassigned to minor league camp by the Atlanta Braves.
Fantasy Impact
Keirsey went 6-for-29 with a home run and three stolen bases in 13 games with the Braves this spring. The outfielder has appeared in 80 games - all with the Twins - at the major league level, but has gone just 11-of-97 (.113) with three home runs and three stolen bases. He has fared much better in the minors, hitting .269 with 46 home runs and 142 stolen bases in 515 games. Keirsey is likely ticketed for Triple-A Gwinnett.
The Braves have signed outfielder DaShawn Keirsey to a minor-league deal.
Fantasy Impact
Keirsey saw the most game action of his big-league career last season with the Twins, but struggled to a .107 average with two homers in 88 trips to the plate. However, he played solid defense and managed to steal 10 bases despite mostly being used as a defensive replacement.
The Twins designated OF DaShawn Keirsey Jr. for assignment.
Fantasy Impact
Minnesota needed to open up a spot on its 40-man roster. He'll likely clear waivers.
The Twins recalled OF DaShawn Keirsey Jr. from Triple-A St. Paul.
Fantasy Impact
Keirsey takes the roster spot of Luke Keaschall who was placed on the injured list. He'll be a bench bat to close the season.
The Minnesota Twins optioned DaShawn Keirsey to Triple-A St. Paul on Monday.
Fantasy Impact
Keirsey saw just one at-bat in his three days with the Twins and did not record a hit. In a corresponding move, Christian Vazquez (shoulder) was activated from the injured list.
