The Padres signed Miranda to a minor-league contract Friday that includes an invitation to spring training, Aram Leighton of JustBaseball.com reports. Miranda showed promise at times while with the Twins, but he crashed out in 2025, going 6-for-36 with the big club and slashing only .195/.272/.296 across 371 plate appearances at Triple-A St. Paul. Still, the 27-year-old is a solid get on a minor-league contract, and there's a non-zero chance he pushes for playing time at first base in San Diego.

Miranda cleared waivers Thursday and elected free agency, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports. After posting a .763 OPS in the big leagues in 2024, Miranda's performance declined considerably in 2025, as he slashed just .195/.272/.296 across 371 plate appearances at Triple-A St. Paul. His previous success could net him a fair amount of attention in free agency, though his options will likely be limited to minor-league contracts.

Miranda (hand) was activated from the 7-day injured list at Triple-A St. Paul on Friday, Bobby Nightengale of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports. Miranda is in St. Paul's lineup at third base Friday after missing the previous month with a strained left hand. He hit just .167 over 12 games with the Twins prior to his demotion in mid-April.

Triple-A St. Paul placed Miranda on its 7-day injured list Tuesday due to a left hand strain, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports. The 26-year-old was optioned to Triple-A over the weekend but will shift to the injured list before seeing game action with St. Paul. According to Bobby Nightengale of The Minnesota Star Tribune, Miranda suffered the injury on St. Paul's off day Monday while he was shopping and grabbing for a case of water. Miranda had hit just .167 over 12 games with the Twins prior to his demotion.

The Twins are planning to option Miranda to Triple-A St. Paul following Saturday's 4-0 loss to the Tigers, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports. Miranda has struggled to start the season, slashing .167/.167/.250 with one home run, five RBI and 13 strikeouts across 36 plate appearances. His baserunning blunder in the eighth frame of Saturday's game seemed to be the final straw for the club. Brooks Lee (back) is expected to be activated off the injured list to take Miranda's spot on the 26-man roster.
