Minnesota Twins first baseman/outfielder Alex Kirilloff (wrist) has been taking full swings while working out this offseason and is expected to be ready to go for the start of spring training after needing season-ending surgery in 2022 to fix a ligament tear in his right wrist. The 25-year-old former first-round pick has only been able to play in 104 games in his two big-league seasons with the Twins due to injury, but he could be a post-hype breakout for fantasy managers if he's ever able to ...

Minnesota Twins outfielder Alex Kirilloff (wrist) will undergo season-ending wrist surgery to shorten his ulnar bone, with the goal of being ready for spring training next year. Wrist issues have really set Kirilloff back, as he's dealt with wrist injuries in three of the last four seasons. He also missed all of 2017 in the minors after undergoing Tommy John surgery, so Kirilloff just hasn't been able to stay on the field to reach his true ceiling. All of his wrist injuries could really sap the...

The young outfielder collided with first baseman Andrew Vaughn when attempting to run to first. He was immediately pulled out of the contest as a precaution. The Twins have revealed Kirilloff has not suffered any major injuries from the collision. Fantasy managers should consider Kirilloff day-to-day, but he should avoid a trip to the injured list.

Minnesota Twins second baseman Jorge Polanco (back) will go on the injured list due to lower-back tightness. In a corresponding move, outfielder Alex Kirilloff is expected to be called up from the minors to join the Twins in Arizona. Polanco hasn't played since last Sunday, and he'll be out at least a little longer. The 28-year-old's MRI exam didn't show any major injury, so there's a good chance Polanco could return when he's eligible. Luis Arraez should continue to see most of the starts at...

Minnesota Twins outfielder/first baseman Alex Kirilloff was optioned to Triple-A St. Paul on Saturday and left-hander Devin Smeltzer was selected from St. Paul in a corresponding move. The Twins also moved first baseman Miguel Sano (knee) to the 60-day injured list.

Minnesota is hoping regular playing time on the farm will get ...
