2025 Fantasy Outlook
Keirsey hit .302/.372/.478 with 14 homers and 37 stolen bases at Triple-A St. Paul and got a brief call-up to the majors in September. Speed and center field defense are his best assets. He's had decent walk and strikeout rates but it's not clear that he'll have the power to find any kind of regular role in the majors and his age (27) limits his upside. He could be an asset in fantasy baseball due to his speed in any scenario, but he's likely a long shot to win a roster spot this spring. Read Past Outlooks

Optioned to Triple-A
OFMinnesota Twins  AAA
May 31, 2025
The Twins optioned Keirsey to Triple-A St. Paul on Saturday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The move makes room on the Twins' 26-man roster for Matt Wallner (hamstring), who was reinstated off the 10-day injured list. Keirsey cracked the Twins' Opening Day roster but saw inconsistent playing time in the majors due to his .109/.136/.156 slash line and 31.8 percent strikeout rate over 66 plate appearances. He'll look to regain his form in Triple-A, where he posted an .850 OPS with 37 steals, 14 home runs and 81 RBI in 505 plate appearances in 2024.
