Trevor Larnach News
Minnesota Twins outfielder Trevor Larnach must demonstrate a lot in spring training in order to win a roster spot in 2023. The addition of infielder Donovan Solano means more time in the outfield for Joey Gallo and few designated hitter at-bats to go around. With the Twins roster being jam-packed, even a great spring from Larnach might not be enough if Alex Kirilloff (wrist) is healthy. If Larnach makes the Opening Day roster, he'll likely be a part-time DH and corner outfielder. It would be a surprise if both Kirilloff and Larnach are on the Opening Day roster together. The 25-year-old left-handed hitter has looked healthy this spring after having season-ending core-muscle surgery in June of last year. The former first-rounder still has plenty of pop, so he's worth a look in deep mixed leagues if he makes the roster in a part-time role.
Minnesota Twins outfielder Trevor Larnach (core) will have bilateral surgery to fix his core muscle injury, according to president of baseball operations Derek Falvey. The Twins are hoping that Larnach can return in roughly six weeks. The 25-year-old landed on the injured list on Saturday after already missing time in 2022 with a groin injury. He's only played in 51 games this year and is hitting .231/.306/.406 with five home runs, 18 RBI and 22 runs scored in 180 plate appearances. Larnach just hasn't been able to find his groove due to injuries, and he struggled in his rookie year in 2021 when he hit just .223 with seven homers and 28 RBI in 79 games. Nick Gordon should continue to benefit from regular playing time in the outfield with Larnach out for the foreseeable future.
The Minnesota Twins placed outfielder Trevor Larnach (core) on the 10-day injured list with a core muscle strain on Saturday. Fellow outfielder Mark Contreras was recalled from Triple-A to fill his roster spot. This is Larnach's second trip to the injured list this season. He missed about two weeks in May with a groin injury. The 25-year-old has appeared in 51 games this year and he's slashed .231/.306/.406 with five home runs, 18 RBI and 22 runs.

Larnach's 2021 outlook would be a lot rosier if there weren't so many talented players to push past in hopes of receiving meaningful playing time. With the assumption that DH Nelson Cruz finds his way back to Minnesota, left field is the only unsettled position on the club. With fellow rookies Alex Kirilloff and underrated Brent Rooker a step ahead of Larnach (as well as a few other less talented players including Jake Cave), it will be a waiting game for the former first-round pick. Had the 2020 minor league season not been wiped out, he may have already forced his way to the Majors. But with just 43 games of experience above A-ball, there is no reason for the Twins to rush this slugger. Larnach has massive raw power and the potential to eventually hit 30 homers in the Majors but he went deep just 13 times in 2019 in part because he hit too many balls on the ground. He's hit for a high average at every stop of his career but as a slow-footed, corner outfielder he's not going to maintain .380 BABIPs for long even if he hits the ball really, really hard. Larnach should settle in as a high on-base, 30-homer slugger who produces an average in the .260-.280 range, which makes him a very valuable dynasty prospect. The Twins' depth will limit him to an intriguing 2021 redraft waiver target.
