The Twins optioned Miranda to Triple-A St. Paul on Wednesday, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports. Miranda will cede his spot on the 26-man active roster to infielder Kyle Farmer (mouth), who was reinstated from the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. While Miranda's impending demotion is shocking on the surface following his impressive rookie campaign in 2022, the 24-year-old is in the midst of a prolonged funk at the plate. He's gone just 6-for-36 over his last 10 games and is slashing .220/.275/.318 on the season, with his .593 OPS representing a 158-point drop from 2022. Ideally, Miranda will be in store for a brief stint in the minors to regain confidence and get his timing back at the plate before he steps back into an everyday role with the Twins at third base. In the meantime, the Twins are likely to turn to a combination of Farmer and Willi Castro to handle the hot corner.... See More ... See Less

Twins' Jose Miranda: Likely headed to minors
The Twins are expected to option Miranda to Triple-A St. Paul prior to Wednesday's game against the Padres, LaVelle E. Neal III of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. Minnesota has yet to confirm the transaction, but Miranda is expected to cede his spot on the 26-man active roster to infielder Kyle Farmer (mouth), who is due to return from the 10-day injured list.

Twins' Jose Miranda: Getting breather
Miranda is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox. Miranda received his first day off of the season Sunday and will take a seat again Wednesday. Willi Castro is at third base in his place.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Jose Miranda: Sits for first time
Miranda is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals. Miranda is 5-for-14 with a double, three home runs, four RBI and five runs scored over the past four contests, and he'll take a seat Sunday after starting Minnesota's first 28 games of the campaign. Willi Castro will step in at the hot corner for the Twins in the series finale.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Jose Miranda: Hits third home run
Miranda went 2-for-4 with a double, a solo home run and an additional run scored in Friday's victory over Kansas City. After slashing just .226/.287/.247 through the first 24 games of the season, Miranda has hit three home runs in his last three contests. The slow start didn't impact his job security as he's played in every game for the Twins, with 22 starts at third base and two at designated hitter.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Jose Miranda: On base thrice in win
Mirando went 2-for-3 with a walk and a run scored in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Twins. Miranda found himself on base in the second, third, fifth and eighth inning, although his last time getting on was due to a fielder's choice. He came across to put the Twins up 3-1 in the fifth after walking in the inning. The 24-year-old has begun to turn things around at the plate, tallying seven hits over his last five games after he had just 14 total over his first 17 games. Miranda has yet to leave the yard thus far, and hopefully his recent surge is a sign of better things to come.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Jose Miranda: Plays third with no issues
Miranda started at third base and went 0-for-3 with two walks in Thursday's season-opening win at Kansas City. Miranda was limited to DH and first base for most of spring training due to a sore throwing shoulder. However, it looks like he's ready for everyday duty at the hot corner with the start of the regular season. His sore shoulder wasn't an issue at the plate as Miranda had a tremendous spring with five home runs and a 1.225 OPS.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Jose Miranda: Ready to play third base
Miranda (shoulder) is expected to start at third base on Opening Day, MLB.com reports. He started at third base in Monday's spring training win over Pittsburgh and went 3-for-4 with two doubles. He's hitting .325 with five home runs and a 1.225 OPS this spring. Miranda was limited to DH and first base for most of spring training due to a sore throwing shoulder. He's started the past two spring games at third base and looks set for everyday duty once the regular season begins. His sore shoulder wasn't an issue at the plate as Miranda had a tremendous spring with five home runs.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Jose Miranda: Will start at third base Saturday
Miranda (shoulder) will start at third base for the Twins during Saturday's Grapefruit League game versus Atlanta, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports. Miranda has been limited to designated hitter and, more recently, first base duties while coming back from a sore right shoulder, but he's finally ready to test things out from the hot corner. He's slated to see most of his playing time at third base during the regular season, although Miranda could be eased into the position in the early going.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Jose Miranda: Expected to play first base Tuesday
Miranda (shoulder) is expected to play first base for the Twins on Tuesday in their Grapefruit League contest versus the Rays, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports. Miranda has been limited to designated hitter duties while he works through some soreness in his right shoulder, but he's been throwing from 120 feet without issue lately. The plan is to mostly play him at third base this season and the club would like to get him into some spring games at the hot corner, but they could ease him back into things are first base initially, especially if Alex Kirilloff (wrist) isn't available. The shoulder has not affected Miranda at the plate, which his 1.079 OPS and three homers this spring can attest.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Jose Miranda: Throwing without issues
Miranda (shoulder) began a throwing progression Friday without issues, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports. Shoulder soreness popped up for Miranda early in camp and forced him to withdraw from the World Baseball Classic. Whether or not he'll be able to handle the hot corner by Opening Day is unclear, but he'll at least be able to serve as the designated hitter, the position he's been playing so far this spring....

Twins' Jose Miranda: Chance to be 3B-ready for opener
Miranda (shoulder) has a "very realistic chance" of being ready to play third base on Opening Day, Twins manager Rocco Baldelli told Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com on Tuesday. Miranda tested out his right shoulder with a plyo ball Tuesday and expects to be ready to throw a regular baseball in 2-3 days. If he can avoid setbacks, it sounds like he should be ready to handle the hot corner come March 30. Even if he's not quite ready to play the field, Miranda could serve as the first baseman or designated hitter for a bit. He's already homered three times out of the DH spot this spring....

Twins' Jose Miranda: Tests shoulder with plyo ball
Miranda tested out his right shoulder by throwing a plyo ball Tuesday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports. It went well, and the next step will be for Miranda to throw with a regular ball in a few days. His shoulder does not bother him at the plate, which he showed Tuesday with a home run -- his third already this spring -- out of the designated hitter spot.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Jose Miranda: Out of WBC due to shoulder
Miranda (shoulder) withdrew Wednesday from competing for the Puerto Rican team in the World Baseball Classic, Phil Miller of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. Miranda recently experienced right shoulder soreness in Twins camp, so he'll cancel his plans to play in the upcoming WBC and focus on his rehab. The issue doesn't seem to be a huge concern -- he's taken three Grapefruit League at-bats out of the designated-hitter spot -- but now the 24-year-old can simply focus on being ready to handle third base for Minnesota once he's cleared to throw again. He posted an encouraging .751 OPS with 15 home runs and 66 RBI over his first 125 big-league games in 2022.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Jose Miranda: Dealing with sore shoulder
Miranda has been limited to designated hitter duty early on in camp because of a sore right shoulder, Twins manager Rocco Baldelli told Nick Nelson of TwinsDaily.com Tuesday. The shoulder evidently doesn't bother Miranda at the plate but is causing some issues when throwing. It does not sound like a major concern at this point, but it's unclear when Miranda might be cleared to play the field. He's slated for third base duties in 2023 after spending most of 2022 at first base.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Jose Miranda: Prepping for everyday role at 3B
Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said in December that Miranda is on track to open the season as the team's primary third baseman following the offseason trade of Gio Urshela to the Angels, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports. Miranda saw most of his opportunities during his rookie season at first base or as a designated hitter, but he'll get the chance to return to the position where he spent most of his minor-league career now that Urshela is out West. Though Miranda didn't grade out well defensively in the corner infield in 2022, the Twins are optimistic that the decline in the field from Urshela to the 24-year-old won't be a substantial one. At the very least, Miranda should provide an overall upgrade from Urshela at the plate after overcoming a slow start to his rookie campaign to finish with an impressive .268/.325/.426 slash line over 483 plate appearances....

Twins' Jose Miranda: Won't play in finale
Miranda (mouth) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox. Miranda had been included in the Twins' initial lineup for Wednesday, but the Twins opted to hold him out for the season finale and give him more time to move past the mouth contusion he suffered when he was hit by a pitch Tuesday. He'll close out his rookie campaign with a .268 average, 15 home runs, 66 RBI and 45 runs over 124 games.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Jose Miranda: Dealing with mouth bruise
Miranda was diagnosed with a lip/mouth contusion after being hit by a pitch Tuesday against the White Sox, Megan Ryan of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. The 24-year-old had the pitch ricochet off his left hand before it struck him in the face, and it appears he's avoided a serious injury. Miranda should be considered day-to-day, and it's unclear if he'll be available Wednesday for the final game of the regular season.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Jose Miranda: Two hits, two RBI
Miranda went 2-for-5 with a double and two RBI in Sunday's 5-1 victory over the White Sox. Miranda tallied two hits Sunday, including a two-run double in the top of the ninth inning to increase Minnesota's lead to four. The multi-hit effort was his second in his last three games, a welcome sight as he is hitting .218 over his last 15 games with only three extra-base hits, all doubles. He will look to regain his power stroke that he showed in July, when he slugged .603.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Jose Miranda: Belts 13th home run
Miranda went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 2-1 win over the Rangers on Friday. Miranda followed up a solo home run by Luis Arraez with one of his own for back-to-back first-inning blasts, which gave the Twins all of the offense they needed for the win. The 24-year-old rookie struggled initially in May but he has been remarkably consistent since June. Miranda is finding himself slotted into the cleanup spot as of late and is slashing an excellent .317/.377/.492 in August. He appears to be breaking out and now has 13 homers and 52 RBI on the season despite only having played in 80 games. With a full season of playing time, he'd be on pace for a 100-RBI campaign, providing some power and run production with third-base eligibility.... See More ... See Less
