Ryan Jeffers News
Minnesota Twins catcher Ryan Jeffers went 3-for-3 with a home run, a double, and four RBI in Tuesday's 6-3 win over Cleveland. Jeffers ripped a 103.5 MPH two-run double in the fourth inning, then belted a 426-foot, two-run blast to extend the Twins lead in the sixth. The young backstop needed a performance like that, as he was 0-for-9 with five strikeouts heading into the contest. Jeffers' plate discipline leaves a bit to be desired, as does his .212 batting average, though he's shown promising power potential with 13 homers and an impressive 13.3 percent barrel rate. He's a nice catcher to roster in dynasty formats.
Minnesota Twins catcher Ryan Jeffers (heel) suffered a heel injury during Thursday's game against the Boston Red Sox. According to Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com, Jeffers was unable to swing a bat or run after suffering the injury. Twins manager Rocco Baldelli spoke to the press after the game and didn't rule out a stint on the injured list for Jeffers. The Twins' starting catcher Mitch Garver (back) is currently dealing with back tightness. The team has been limiting Garver's playing time lately. Jeffers has started five of the last seven games while Garver has been limited. If Jeffers requires a trip to the injured list, the team may look to get Willians Astudillo back behind the plate or, alternatively, Ben Rortvedt could be recalled.
Minnesota Twins catcher Ryan Jeffers collected a three-run homer in Saturday's 8-1 defeat of the Cardinals. Making his first start since Wednesday, Jeffers contributed to a five-run third inning for the Twins, depositing a ball 411 feet into the seats at 101.3 MPH. The 24-year-old has taken a bit of a backseat to Mitch Garver since the latter returned, though Jeffers has been excellent in the last two games he has started, collecting three home runs and nine RBI. He's more of a DFS play, given that he is likely to see slightly less playing time than Garver moving forward, though he can still be a fine matchup play.
