Josh Staumont: Free agent again
The Cubs released Staumont on Thursday, Tommy Birch of the Des Moines Register reports.
Staumont just inked a minor-league contract with the Cubs two weeks ago after he had been released by the Twins, and the righty has now been cut loose again. The 30-year-old made just two appearances with Triple-A Iowa, allowing two runs over one inning while walking five batters. A few years ago, Staumont looked like he would have a nice career as a reliever, but he's struggled to bounce back from thoracic outlet syndrome surgery.

Cubs' Josh Staumont: Receives MiLB deal from Cubs
The Cubs signed Staumont to a minor-league contract Friday, Darren Wolfson of Channel 5 Saint Paul reports.
He will report to Triple-A Iowa for now, but the Cubs could call the reliever up later this month. Staumont posted a 3.70 ERA in 24.1 innings with the Twins this season, but he had just a 18:14 K:BB and had surrendered 10 runs over his last six appearances before being released.

Josh Staumont: Cut by Minnesota
The Twins released Staumont on Saturday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.
Staumont was removed from the Twins' 40-man roster earlier in the week after the Twins cleared room for trade-deadline addition Trevor Richards. The right-hander went unclaimed on waivers prior to ultimately being let go Saturday. The reliever has produced a respectable 3.70 ERA and 1.27 WHIP with 18 strikeouts over 24.1 innings in 25 appearances with Minnesota this season, and he'll likely get another shot with a big-league club in the near future.

Twins' Josh Staumont: DFA'd by Twins
The Twins designated Staumont for assignment Tuesday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.
With Trevor Richards coming over to Minnesota in a trade with Toronto on Tuesday, Staumont will end up as the odd man out of a spot on the Twins' roster. The 30-year-old was able to get through his first seven MLB appearances of the year without allowing an earned run. However, he's given up 10 earned runs in just 4.2 innings since July 12.

Twins' Josh Staumont: Gives up first runs of season
Staumont allowed two runs on two hits and a walk with a strikeout over one inning Friday against the Giants, ending a 19.2-inning scoreless streak to begin the season.
Staumont has had an impressive comeback after having thoracic outlet syndrome surgery last July. He's had increased velocity as the season has progressed, reaching a high of 101.1 mph with his fastball July 7. However, he's been a bit lucky with a .185 BABIP and just a 20.5 percent strikeout rate. He may find a tougher road in the second half of the season, but he's been a steady middle relief option.

Twins' Josh Staumont: Extends scoreless streak
Staumont allowed an unearned run on two hits while striking out one over two-thirds of an inning Monday against the White Sox. It was his first run allowed this season (on a throwing error), but he hasn't allowed an earned run in 19.2 innings this season.
Staumont has had an impressive comeback after having thoracic outlet syndrome surgery last July. He's had increased velocity as the season has progressed, reaching a high of 101.1 mph with his fastball on July 7. There are some causes for concern, however, as before Monday he hasn't had a great strikeout rate (20.3%), has a worrisome walk rate (11.6%) and an unsustainable .168 BABIP. Still, he's become a dependable option in middle relief for the Twins.

Twins' Josh Staumont: Joins big-league bullpen
The Twins recalled Staumont from Triple-A St. Paul on Wednesday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.
Staumont allowed five runs but turned in a 16:3 K:BB over 10.2 relief innings this season with St. Paul. If or when Staumont makes an appearance with the Twins, it will be his first in the majors since he had thoracic outlet syndrome surgery last July.

Twins' Josh Staumont: Activated, optioned to Triple-A
The Twins reinstated Staumont (calf) from the 15-day injured list Friday and optioned him to Triple-A St. Paul, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.
A left calf strain has kept Staumont on the sideline since Opening Day. He made three rehab appearances at St. Paul and will remain with the Saints after allowing three runs across 3.2 innings, though he could return to the majors if the Twins find themselves in need of a fresh bullpen arm later in the season.

Twins' Josh Staumont: Poised for rehab assignment
Staumont (calf) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.
Staumont has been out all season after tweaking his left calf late in spring training, but he's ready to test things out in game action. He made seven appearances this spring before getting hurt, so he shouldn't need too many outings before joining the Twins' bullpen.

Twins' Josh Staumont: Hits IL with calf strain
The Twins placed Staumont on the 15-day injured list Thursday with a left calf strain.
Staumont was on track to make the Twins' Opening Day roster, but his bid was derailed when he slipped in the bullpen earlier this week and apparently suffered the calf strain in the process. The transaction is retroactive to Monday, so Staumont will be eligible to return from the IL as soon as April 9.

Twins' Josh Staumont: Nursing knee issue
Staumont is having his knee evaluated Tuesday after he slipped in the bullpen, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribunereports.
The right-hander is set to make Minnesota's Opening Day roster, but the knee issue could end up sending him to the injured list. Staumont posted a 5.40 ERA in 21 outing for the Royals last season and is likely to fill a low-leverage role for the Twins when healthy.

Twins' Josh Staumont: Velocity bouncing back
Staumont reached 98 mph with his fastball in his last outing Saturday after only reaching 92-93 mph earlier in the spring, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. He's given up two earned runs with four strikeouts and five walks in 4.2 innings this spring.
He had an 95.8-mph average fastball last season. Staumont is working his way back after undergoing thoracic outlet syndrome surgery in July. He has a minor-league option left, so he may begin the season in Triple-A as he builds back to full speed. It's also possible he begins the season in the majors with injuries to Caleb Thielbar (hamstring) and Jhoan Duran (oblique).

Twins' Josh Staumont: Decreased velocity this spring

Twins' Josh Staumont: Considered 100 percent
Staumont (shoulder) will not be under any restrictions at the start of spring training, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Staumont underwent thoracic outlet syndrome surgery in July but told reporters Wednesday that he's been throwing for months. It's an operation that is notoriously difficult to come back from. Staumont has posted a 6.09 ERA over 63 appearances since the start of the 2022 season.

Twins' Josh Staumont: Signs one-year deal with Twins
Staumont (shoulder) signed a one-year contract with the Twins on Wednesday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.
Hayes says the deal is worth a little less than $1 million and notes that Staumont will have a year of arbitration eligibility in 2025, as well. Staumont was non-tendered by the Royals last month after undergoing thoracic outlet syndrome surgery in July. The 30-year-old has posted a 6.09 ERA over 63 appearances since the start of the 2022 season, but from 2019-21 he held a 2.93 ERA and 124:53 K:BB over 110.2 innings. The track record of pitchers coming back from TOS surgery is checkered, at best, but on a one-year pact the Twins felt Staumont was worth a roll of the dice.

Staumont (neck) became a free agent Friday after being non-tendered by the Royals.
Staumont was designated for assignment by Kansas City on Tuesday and will now officially head into free agency. The 29-year-old reliever underwent surgery this past July for thoracic outlet syndrome and it's unclear when he might be able to return to a mound.

Royals' Josh Staumont: Moved off 40-man roster
Staumont (neck) was designated for assignment by the Royals on Tuesday.
