The Twins have optioned outfielder Emmanuel Rodriguez to Triple-A St. Paul.
Fantasy Impact
Rodriguez hit .421 with a pair of homers across 21 trips to the plate this spring. The 23-year-old hit .258 with six homers and nine stolen bases across 52 Triple-A contests last season.
Emmanuel Rodriguez was removed from Saturday's game with Triple-A St. Paul and is being evaluated.
Fantasy Impact
Rodriguez, the Twins’ No. 2 prospect, will be evaluated in the coming days to determine whether he’ll need to miss time following the All-Star break. He’s been seeing the ball well at Triple-A, slashing .254/.411/.428 over 175 plate appearances.
The Twins have optioned Emmanuel Rodriguez to minor-league camp.
Fantasy Impact
Rodriguez did not appear in a game this spring as he continues to recover from an ankle injury. The 22-year-old should begin the season in Triple-A.
Emmanuel Rodriguez (ankle) began a running program Saturday after being cleared to test his sprained left ankle, per team updates.
Fantasy Impact
The 22-year-old outfielder’s been out since mid-February with that ankle issue, and coming off thumb surgery this offseason, the Twins are easing him back into the mix. This running step signals progress, but expect a slow build to game readiness. Fantasy managers in dynasty leagues might still love his long-term upside, though he’s not a redraft factor until he’s fully ramped up.
Twins prospect Emmanuel Rodriguez sprained his left ankle last week and will be delayed for a week or two from participating in camp.
Fantasy Impact
Rodriguez will likely be sidelined from camp through the remainder of February. He should be back to full strength by the start of March barring any setbacks.
