Minnesota Twins · SP
At 30 years old, this right-hander operates as a mid-rotation starter competing for innings in what appears to be a depth role with the Orioles organization. His 2025 campaign showed modest production with 11 wins and 142 strikeouts across 171.2 innings, though his ERA and WHIP remain concerning for fantasy purposes. Early 2026 results suggest continued volatility in the 4.09 ERA range, making him a risky play for managers seeking stability in ERA and WHIP categories. The upside remains in accumulating wins and strikeouts if he secures regular starts, but his age and recent performance trends suggest he's best viewed as a streaming option rather than a reliable anchor in a fantasy rotation.
Dean Kremer strong in Twins debut after trade
Dean Kremer, acquired by the Minnesota Twins from the Orioles before the Trade Deadline, has made two impressive starts for his new team despite his inflated ERA with Baltimore. The right-hander is showing his true ace potential with Minnesota and could be a significant addition to the Twins' playoff rotation. His turnaround demonstrates the impact of a fresh start for struggling pitchers.
