2024 Fantasy Outlook
For the first time in his career Winder didn't start a game in 2023 splitting time between the majors and at Triple-A St. Paul. Winder compiled a 4.15 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and had a 7.27 K/9 in 34.2 innings with the twins, while things were worse at Triple-A pitching to a 6.16 ERA and 1.92 WHIP in 30.2 innings. The 27-year-old seems to have lost any hope at a rotation spot after starting 11 games for the Twins in 2022. Winder should break camp out of the bullpen, but his fantasy upside is lacking with no path to a high leverage role, likely being used in long relief. Read Past Outlooks
Outrighted to Triple-A
The Twins outrighted Winder to Triple-A St. Paul on Monday, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Winder, 28, spent the bulk of the 2024 season at St. Paul posting a 6.15 ERA but a 47:13 K:BB over 41 innings. He will remain in the organization as bullpen depth.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Winder began last season in a long relief role and was impressive and given several stints in the starting rotation. He had a 3.68 ERA in his first seven games (three starts) before missing a month due to right shoulder impingement syndrome. He struggled with shoulder issues the rest of the season sandwiching a 5.50 ERA in eight starts around another six weeks on the injured list due to the same shoulder issue. It was the second consecutive season where Winder struggled with shoulder issues which could make him an injury risk. Despite his initial success, he also didn't display some of the underlying positive metrics he had in the minors with just a 6.3 K/9 and 1.48 HR/9. Winder did display his good control as he had a 2.4 BB/9. While he doesn't have an overpowering fastball (94.1 mph average) he has three quality off-speed pitches to keep batters off balance. He'll be in the mix for a spot in the rotation or a tandem-type long relief role this spring, but may need to show he can stay healthy at Triple-A first.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Throwing bullpen Tuesday
Winder, currently out with a shoulder injury, is scheduled to throw a bullpen Tuesday, reports Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com.
ANALYSIS
After being sent down to Triple-A St. Paul before the All-Star break, Winder suffered a shoulder injury before making an appearance for the Saints. Originally, it was expected that he would miss the remainder of the season, but now it appears as though he could be available in September. Whether or not he'll return as a starter is not yet known and Minnesota will surely exercise caution when it comes to the 25-year-old's health.
