Andrew Stevenson News
Minnesota Twins outfielder Andrew Stevenson has been outrighted to Triple-A St. Paul on Friday. The 29-year-old was nearly unstoppable at the plate before being called up to the big league roster in September. He slashed .317/.394/.522 with 16 homers and 44 steals in 106 games before being moved up to the Twins. After that, Stevenson slashed 189/.250/.216 in 40 plate appearances for the Twins last season. The Twins didn't want to commit a 40-man roster spot to him. It's unlikely he becomes a significant contributor even if he leaves the Twins this offseason.
Outfielder Andrew Stevenson signed with the Minnesota Twins on a minor-league contract on Thursday. Stevenson spent the last five seasons with the Washington Nationals but mainly played in the minor leagues. In 2021, he made 213 plate appearances in the big leagues and slashed .229/.294/.339 with five homers and a .632 OPS. The 28-year-old turned some heads this past season after displaying impressive bat-to-ball skills in Triple-A Rochester. Stevenson amassed an .801 OPS with 16 home runs. If those numbers can translate to the big leagues, it could get him some outfield reps. His speed is a major plus, which is supplemented by an impressive glove in the outfield. It will certainly be challenging for Stevenson to break the Twins' 26-man roster considering the current outfield depth, but he could be used as organizational depth.
The Washington Nationals re-signed outfielder Andrew Stevenson and veteran left-hander Luis Avilan on Monday. Stevenson avoided arbitration and stands to earn a modest raise from his 2021 salary of $579,100. The 27-year-old remains the team's fourth outfielder, but both he and the Nationals will be hoping for more production in 2022 after he slashed .229/.294/.339 with five home runs and 23 RBI over 213 plate appearances last season. He hit just .184 with a .248 on-base percentage in 136 plate appearances as a starter compared to .319 with a .794 OPS and four of his five homers off the bench. Avilan appeared in only four games last year before needing Tommy John surgery on his elbow.
