Minnesota Twins ยท OF
The 27-year-old right fielder enters 2026 looking to build on modest power development while maintaining his speed advantage, though his batting average dipped to .244 last season after hitting .282 the prior year. Martin offers fantasy managers upside in runs and stolen bases given the Twins' offensive environment, but he remains a high-risk contributor in power and RBI categories with just 2 home runs across 217 at-bats in his recent campaign. His speed remains a consistent strength at eight stolen bases, making him valuable in leagues that prioritize speed and on-base skills, though managers should temper expectations for traditional power production given his profile. The primary downside is the uncertainty around whether he can stabilize his batting average while continuing to develop as a power threat, making him best suited as a depth outfield option rather than a cornerstone fantasy asset.
Austin Martin activated after hamstring injury
The Minnesota Twins reinstated outfielder Austin Martin from the injured list after recovering from a hamstring injury. Martin's return provides depth to the Twins' outfield and gives fantasy managers another option for their lineups. His activation removes one of Minnesota's injury concerns down the stretch.
