Availability



Justin Topa starting Saturday

Justin Topa will start Saturday's game vs the Braves.

Fantasy Impact

Topa will fill in after Simeon Woods-Richardson was scratched. He has not gone longer than 1.2 innings so far this season, so this will likely be a bullpen game for the Twins.

Justin Topa (shoulder) back on mound Tuesday

Justin Topa (shoulder) threw a bullpen session Tuesday, per team reports.

Fantasy Impact

Topa, pulled last Wednesday for right shoulder tightness—called precautionary, skipping an MRI—expects to toss again Friday; his Opening Day status hangs in limbo despite the step forward. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues can monitor him; his relief role’s still up in the air.

Justin Topa exits spring game with shoulder tightness

Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said Justin Topa was pulled from Wednesday’s Grapefruit League outing against the Orioles due to right shoulder tightness, per team reports.

Fantasy Impact

Topa, 33, lasted seven pitches—yielding a homer—before a trainer visit ended his day; he’s set for a Thursday check-up, with Baldelli optimistic it’s not major, though Opening Day hangs in the balance. After a 2024 mostly lost to a torn patella tendon, plus past flexor and dual Tommy John surgeries, injuries keep haunting him. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues should wait this out; his relief role’s shaky until he’s cleared.

Justin Topa exits Wednesday’s spring outing with injury

Justin Topa was pulled from Wednesday’s Cactus League game against the Orioles due to an apparent injury, per team reports.

Fantasy Impact

Topa lasted just seven pitches—giving up a solo homer with noticeably weaker velocity—before leaving; the Twins should clarify his status later Wednesday. After knee and elbow troubles limited him to three outings in 2024, this adds concern. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues can wait for the update; his relief role’s shaky until he’s back on track.

Justin Topa agrees to one-year deal with Twins

The Twins and Justin Topa have agreed to a one-year deal to avoid arbitration.

Fantasy Impact

Topa saw limited action in 2024 due to a tear in his left patellar tendon. He will likely pitch in a middle relief role for the Twins in 2025.
