• Kyle Farmer: Option declined

  5D ago • By RotoWire

  The Twins declined Farmer's mutual option for 2025 on Thursday, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports. Farmer spent two years with the Twins and was in a reserve role for most of 2024. He managed only 242 appearances across 107 games while recording a .646 OPS. Farmer's defensive versatility could lead to him receiving a big-league deal this offseason, but he's unlikely to be a regular in most lineups.

• Twins' Kyle Farmer: Back on bench Wednesday

  09/25/2024 • By RotoWire

  Farmer is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins. Farmer has served as a short-side platoon player for much of the season, but he was included in the lineup in four of the Twins' last five games, with two of those starts coming against right-handed pitching. He'll take a seat against Marlins righty Edward Cabrera on Wednesday, though Farmer's playing-time outlook still appears to have improved with Matt Wallner's (oblique) recent move to the injured list creating an open spot in the lineup.

• Twins' Kyle Farmer: Sitting after consecutive starts

  09/11/2024 • By RotoWire

  Farmer is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels. Farmer drew a rare start against a right-hander (Griffin Canning) in Tuesday's 10-5 win and came through with a big night, going 2-for-3 with a home run, a walk, three RBI and an additional run. Though the home run was his second in as many days and helped bring his OPS up to 1.471 in September, Farmer looks like he'll remain in a short-side platoon role for the Twins.
