View More NewsMichael A. Taylor traded from Royals to Twins
The Minnesota Twins have acquired outfielder Michael A. Taylor from the Kansas City Royals.
Fantasy Impact
The Royals received a pair of minor-league pitchers in the AL Central swap. Known more for his defense than his bat, Taylor slashed just .254/.313/.357 with nine home runs with the Royals last season. More disappointing was the lack of activity on the bases as he stole just four bags across 124 appearances on the season. Taylor will back up the oft-injured Byron Buxton in center field with the Twins while also seeing some time in left field in 2023.
