Minnesota Twins make another around of spring cuts
Twins have 17 days to cut active roster to 26 players
The Twins announced a second round of spring cuts Monday. All four roster moves were pitchers, three righties and one lefty.
The four cuts were:
- LHP Brent Headrick
- RHP Simeon Woods Richardson
- RHP Matt Canterino
- RHP David Festa
Headrick, Woods Richardson and Canterino were optioned to Triple-A St. Paul, with Festa reassigned to the Twins' minor league camp. Festa was the only one of the four not on the Twins' 40-man roster.
Minnesota have until March 28 to finalize their 26-man roster, with no more than 13 pitchers. Currently the Twins have 46 active players in Spring Training, ten of which are non-roster invitees.
The current make-up of the roster:
- 22 pitchers (4 non-roster)
- 5 catchers (2 non-roster)
- 10 infielders (3 non-rosters)
- 7 outfielders (0 non-roster)
- 2 utility players (1 non-roster)
The Twins have just one player on the 60-day injured list.
Minnesota opens its 2024 season at Kansas City on March 28.
