  • Twins' Jose Miranda: Sent down to St. Paul

    The Twins optioned Miranda to Triple-A St. Paul on Monday, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    The addition of Carlos Santana pretty much blocked Miranda's path to an Opening Day roster spot. He's probably best off going back to the minors for a while, anyway, following offseason surgery to remove scar tissue from his right labrum and rotator cuff.

  • Twins' Jose Miranda: Will focus on first base

    Miranda (shoulder) will focus on playing first base when he returns to the field this week, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. Miranda has been limited to DH so far this spring. "We think he can really fit [there, but] it's a position he hasn't played a ton," said manager Rocco Baldelli.

    Miranda underwent offseason surgery to remove scar tissue from his right labrum and rotator cuff. He's 3-for-8 with a double in three games this spring. Miranda appears set to begin the season at Triple-A barring an injury elsewhere on the roster, so it will be interesting to see if he's limited to first base in the minors as well.

  • Twins' Jose Miranda: Collects two hits Monday

    Miranda (shoulder) went 2-for-3 with one double, one RBI and one run scored in Monday's exhibition against the Yankees. He started at DH and the Twins plan to ease him into action for a few weeks before using him at first base or third base, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    Miranda underwent offseason surgery to remove scar tissue from his right labrum and rotator cuff, and he's since been cleared for game action. He looked sharp in his chances at the dish Monday, as he collected a base knock in the top of the first inning and doubled home the first run of the game in the third. Now that Miranda has returned to health, he'll set his sights on earning playing time either at the hot corner behind Royce Lewis or at first base, where he'll compete with Carlos Santana and Alex Kirilloff.

  • Twins' Jose Miranda: Begins throwing

    Miranda (shoulder) began throwing in mid-January, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

    Miranda had surgery in early October to remove scar tissue from his right labrum and rotator cuff. He was cleared to begin hitting in early December and recently progressed to hitting off a pitching machine and throwing. The plan is for Miranda to be eased into game action this spring at designated hitter before eventually playing the field. All 35 of Miranda's starts during his injury-shortened, disappointing 2023 season came at third base, but his best shot at playing time in 2024 could be at first.

  • Twins' Jose Miranda: Starts hitting

    Miranda (shoulder) started hitting within the past week, but he's not expected to begin throwing until January, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    Miranda underwent surgery on his shoulder in September, which was a cleanup procedure, according to the Star Tribune. That development is considered a positive, since his shoulder issues were thought to be more serious. Miranda struggled last year by hitting just .211/.263/.303 in 40 games before his season ended in July due to the shoulder injury. Miranda began last season as Minnesota's everyday third baseman, but his struggles and shoulder injury have clouded his outlook for 2024. He'll potentially compete for a role at first base this spring, but he may need to prove himself again at Triple-A.

  • Twins' Jose Miranda: Undergoing shoulder surgery

    Miranda will undergo surgery on his injured right shoulder Thursday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

    Miranda is having a consultation Wednesday before undergoing the procedure Thursday. More information regarding the exact nature of the operation and a potential rehab timetable is expected after the surgery, but at the very least it's going to end his 2023 campaign. Miranda has been sidelined since mid-July with a right shoulder impingement.

  • Twins' Jose Miranda: Moves to 60-day IL

    The Twins transferred Miranda (shoulder) to the 60-day injured list Friday.

    Miranda was already expected to be out until late September, but his move to the 60-day IL ensures he's out until at least Sept. 15. His spot on the 40-man roster will be filled by Andrew Stevenson, who was selected from Triple-A St. Paul on Friday.

  • Twins' Jose Miranda: Starts hitting of tee

    Miranda (shoulder) has started hitting off a tee and throwing at about 50 percent from 60 feet, The Athletic reports.

    Miranda received a platelet-rich plasma injection for his injured right shoulder in mid-July. He's finally showing some signs of improvement and said he hopes to begin a rehab assignment in three weeks. He could return in late September if all goes well, though the Twins may not need him on the active roster.

  • Twins' Jose Miranda: Plasma injection in shoulder

    Miranda received a platelet-rich plasma injection in his injured right shoulder and will be shut down for at least a week before the Twins determine the next course of action, John Shipley of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    An MRI exam on Miranda's shoulder revealed an impingement. It sounds like he'll be out several more weeks as a result even in a best-case scenario.

  • Twins' Jose Miranda: Heading to IL with shoulder issue

    Miranda is likely to be placed on the 10-day injured list due to a sore shoulder, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

    MIranda was scratched with the issue before Friday's game. Miranda has been bothered by the shoulder since spring training and it's a bad sign he had a setback after resting during the All-Star break. Matt Wallner is likely to be recalled from Triple-A, with Kyle Farmer, Willi Castro and Donovan Solano likely to split time at third base until Royce Lewis returns.

  • Twins' Jose Miranda: Officially placed on injured list

    Miranda was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday due to a right shoulder impingement.

    Miranda was scratched Friday due to shoulder soreness, an issue which turns out to be serious enough to sideline him for at least 10 days. The young third baseman has dealt with shoulder issues this season dating back to spring training, which may partially explain his poor .211/.263/.303 slash line. Matt Wallner was recalled to take his place on the roster.

  • Twins' Jose Miranda: Scratched with sore shoulder

    Miranda was scratched from the lineup for Friday's game against the A's with right shoulder soreness, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

    Miranda has been battling soreness in his right shoulder since early in spring training. The extent of his latest setback is unknown at this time. Alex Kirilloff will enter the lineup at first base as Kyle Farmer moves to third base and Donovan Solano slides to second.

  • Twins' Jose Miranda: Sitting against righty again

    Miranda is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

    Miranda is on the bench for the Twins' third straight matchup with a right-handed starting pitcher after going hitless in nine at-bats since he was recalled from Triple-A St. Paul on July 2. Though he had a clear path to a regular starting role at third base after Royce Lewis (oblique) was moved to the injured list, Miranda's struggles have opened the door for the hot-hitting Donovan Solano to pick up more work at the position.

  • Twins' Jose Miranda: Taking seat Wednesday

    Miranda is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Royals.

    Miranda started each of the last three days at third base after coming up to take Royce Lewis' (oblique) roster spot but went hitless in each game. He'll now take a seat for this one in favor of Donovan Solano.

  • Twins' Jose Miranda: Expected to be called up

    Miranda was scratched from the Triple-A St. Paul lineup Saturday and is expected to be called up after Royce Lewis left Saturday's Twins game with a strained oblique muscle, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports

    Miranda began the season as Minnesota's everyday third baseman, but he was sent to Triple-A on May 10 after hitting just .220/.275/.318. Miranda hasn't been much better at Triple-A, as he's hit just .255/.326/.360 in 39 games. However, he has shown some progress lately, hitting .305/.374/.476 with two home runs in his last 20 games.

  • Twins' Jose Miranda: Called up, starting Sunday

    The Twins recalled Miranda from Triple-A St. Paul on Sunday, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. He'll start at third base and bat seventh in the Twins' series finale in Baltimore.

    Miranda is back in the big leagues for the first time since early May, rejoining the Twins as a replacement on the 26-man active roster for Royce Lewis (oblique), who was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. Though he wasn't able to build on his promising rookie campaign during his time in the majors earlier in 2023, Miranda's dormant bat has awoken at St. Paul. He finished June with a .287/.362/.436 slash line while striking out just 17 times in 23 games, and Miranda should now get another chance to step in as the Twins' primary option at third base while Lewis is on the mend.
