Jeffers may head into the season as Minnesota's clear top backstop, following Saturday's trade that sent Mitch Garver to Texas.
This move was a big boost for Jeffers' fantasy value, barring any other moves to bring in a catcher. The Twins' only other catchers on the 40-man roster are Ben Rortvedt and Tomas Telis. Jeffers hit .273 in 2020 but regressed in 2021, hitting .199 with a 36.9 K%. Even so, he had nothing but success in the minors and is a great defensive catcher, so the playing time will likely be there.
