Austin Martin News
Minnesota Twins outfielder Austin Martin (oblique) has landed on the injured list with a right oblique strain. In a corresponding move, the Twins have recalled Matt Wallner from Triple-A St. Paul. Martin is hitting .265 this season with a homer, nine RBI, and six stolen bases in 113 at-bats. Oblique injuries can be tricky, so Martin could be looking at an extended absence.

Austin Martin Making First Career Start
Minnesota Twins prospect Austin Martin is making his first career big-league start on Sunday against right-hander Brady Singer and the Kansas City Royals. Martin is making the start in center field and is hitting ninth for the Twins. With Martin in center field, Byron Buxton will get a day off his feet and will serve as the designated hitter while batting third. Martin, the team's No. 15 prospect per MLB Pipeline, got his first major-league call-up on Saturday when the Twins put Royce Lewis (quadriceps) on the injured list, and the 25-year-old utility man could stick around for a while with Lewis' injury being pretty serious. The fifth overall pick in 2020 out of Tennessee hasn't really lived up to his draft billing, but he provides defensive versatility for Minnesota and has good plate discipline while rarely striking out in the minors. He's worth a pickup in AL-only leagues.

Austin Martin Being Called Up By Twins
The Minnesota Twins are calling up prospect Austin Martin on Saturday from Triple-A St. Paul in a corresponding move with third baseman Royce Lewis (quadriceps) landing on the injured list. Martin is the team's No. 15 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, and he'll be making his major-league debut when he gets into a game. The 25-year-old won't necessarily take over at the hot corner for Lewis, but he can provide the Twins with infield depth while also having the ability to fill in in the outfield. The former fifth overall pick of the Toronto Blue Jays in 2020 out of Vanderbilt hit .260/.381/.398 with seven home runs, 30 RBI and 19 steals in three minor-league stops last year. So far, he hasn't lived up to his first-round hype due to injuries and a lack of power.

Austin Martin Shut Down From Throwing
Minnesota Twins shortstop Austin Martin (elbow) has been shut down from throwing and hitting for the time being. The 23-year-old is dealing with a UCL sprain in his right elbow. It's a shame because Martin was actually doing well in Spring Training. There is no timetable for his return, but it's likely he's sidelined to start the regular season. The former first round pick hasn't reached Triple-A yet, but could be making an impact on the Twins sooner rather than later. Fantasy managers will have to check back later for another update on Martin.

Twins Acquire Austin Martin From Blue Jays
Updating a previous report, the Minnesota Twins have acquired shortstop/outfielder Austin Martin and starting pitcher Simeon Woods Richardson from the Toronto Blue Jays in exchange for starting pitcher Jose Berrios, according to Mark Feinsand of MLB Network. Martin is the No. 2 prospect in the Blue Jays' system according to MLB Pipeline, while Woods-Richardson is the No. 4 prospect. Over 11 starts at Double-A this year, Woods-Richardson is 2-4 with a 5.76 ERA, 1.500 WHIP and 33.2 percent strikeout rate over 45 1/3 innings of work. Meanwhile Martin the No. 5 overall pick in the 2020 Draft is slashing .281/.424/.383 with two home runs, nine steals, 16 RBI and 43 runs scored over 55 games in his first season of professional ball. Managers in dynasty formats will want to look at acquiring both of these prospects, as they should be making an impact in fantasy within the next couple years.

Austin Martin Has Five Hits At Double-A
Toronto Blue Jays prospect Austin Martin went 5-for-6 and drove in four runs on Saturday. The 22-year-old is playing in his first pro season after being selected fifth overall in the 2020 amateur draft; at one point he had been projected as the top pick in the draft due to his strong hit tool. Martin is now hitting .287 with an on-base percentage just shy of .400. He has a 130 wRC+ through 34 games after jumping right from college baseball to Double-A. He's also displaying valuable defensive versatility and has been splitting his time between shortstop and center field. Martin is ranked by Rotoballer as the 24th-best dynasty prospect.
