2026 Projections
2026 Fantasy Outlook
The minor league journeyman infielder finally got a shot at the majors at age 31 last season and showed surprising power. He hit four home runs with a .457 SLG in 21 games. However, he had just a .197 BA likely due to bad luck with a .147 BABIP. He's always had good strikeout and walk rates in the minors, so he could hold his own if needed for an extended stretch in the majors. He'll compete for a utility role this spring but more likely adds depth at Triple-A. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a one-year contract with the Twins in May of 2025.
Booted off 40-man roster
The Twins designated Fitzgerald for assignment Friday.
Analysis
The transaction clears a spot on the 40-man roster for the addition of Eric Wagaman, who was acquired via trade. Fitzgerald reached the majors for the first time in 2025 shortly before turning 31, finishing with a .196/.302/.457 batting line with four home runs in 24 games for the Twins. He's a versatile defender, which could mean there will be interest in Fitzgerald on waivers.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Joins taxi squad
Fitzgerald joined the Twins as a member of the taxi squad Friday since Carlos Correa and Byron Buxton are being evaluated for concussions, reports Dan Hayes of The Athletic.
Analysis
Fitzgerald isn't on the 40-man roster but could soon receive his first look in the majors with Buxton and Correa banged up after colliding with each other in the outfield Thursday against the Orioles. Fitzgerald likely won't see much playing time if added to the big-league roster, but he's enjoyed a productive start to 2025 for Triple-A St. Paul with four homers, three steals and a .328/.426/.528 slash line through 35 games.
