Red Sox's Mickey Gasper: Heading back to Boston
The Red Sox claimed Gasper off waivers from the Nationals on Wednesday.
Gasper broke into the majors with the Red Sox in 2024 before spending the 2025 campaign with the Twins. He's slashed only .133/.250/.195 in 58 games between the two stops, but Gasper offers unique versatility with the ability to play catcher, first base, second base and left field. Gasper has minor-league options remaining, so he could begin the upcoming season at Triple-A Worcester.

Nationals' Mickey Gasper: Removed from 40-man roster
The Nationals designated Gasper for assignment Thursday.
The move frees a spot on the 40-man roster for Richard Lovelady, who was claimed off waivers. Gasper was also a waiver claim of the Nationals just last week and could be on the move to another organization. He's a career .133/.250/.195 hitter over 58 career games in the majors but will have appeal due to his ability to play catcher, first base, second base and left field.

Nationals' Mickey Gasper: Claimed off waivers by Nationals
The Nationals claimed Gasper off waivers from the Twins on Tuesday.
Gasper had been booted off the Twins' 40-man roster, and he's now joining a new organization. The 30-year-old sports a lowly .133/.250/.195 batting line over 58 career games in the majors, but he can play catcher, first base, second base and left field and also has minor-league options remaining.

Twins' Mickey Gasper: Cleared from 40-man roster
The Twins designated Gasper for assignment Wednesday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.
The move clears a spot on the 40-man roster for the addition of Vidal Brujan, who was claimed off waivers. Gasper slashed only .158/.257/.232 over 45 contests with the Twins in 2025, but his ability to play catcher, first base, second base and left field could attract the interest of clubs via the waivers process.

Twins' Mickey Gasper: Goes deep in win
Gasper went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and two runs scored in Tuesday's win over Toronto.
Gasper was 2-for-3 with a run scored before belting a clutch, game-tying shot in the ninth inning. It was his first career home run and his first hit since July 26. He entered Tuesday's game in an 0-for-26 slump before the three-hit performance. Gasper owns a .491 OPS through 77 MLB plate appearances this season.

Twins' Mickey Gasper: Losing out on playing time
Gasper is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.
He started four straight games earlier this month, but Gasper has predictably found himself as the odd man out more often than not since Matt Wallner returned from the paternity list. Gasper will remain on the bench Sunday for the fifth time in seven contests.

Twins' Mickey Gasper: Drawing fourth straight start
Gasper will start at catcher and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Royals.
Despite going 0-for-10 at the dish while starting each of the past three games at either first base or designated hitter, Gasper will stick in the lineup Sunday, this time filling in behind the plate while Ryan Jeffers serves as the Twins' DH. Gasper is likely to fade back into a reserve role once Matt Wallner (personal) returns from the paternity list in the next day or two.

Twins' Mickey Gasper: Joining Twins
The Twins recalled Gasper from Triple-A St. Paul on Saturday.
Gasper will join the big-league roster to provide Minnesota with depth behind the plate while Ryan Jeffers is on paternity leave. The 29-year-old Gasper owns just a .488 OPS through 39 plate appearances in the majors this season, so Christian Vazquez will likely take over as the Twins' main backstop.

Twins' Mickey Gasper: Back from IL
Gasper (foot) was reinstated from Triple-A St. Paul's 7-day injured list Tuesday and went 1-for-4 in his return to the lineup.
Gasper served as St. Paul's designated hitter in his return to the lineup after he had missed about two and a half weeks while recovering from plantar fasciitis. The 29-year-old utility player owns a .316/.418/.600 slash line with 10 home runs and two steals in 41 games at the Triple-A level this season.

Twins' Mickey Gasper: Shut down with foot injury
Triple-A St. Paul placed Gasper on its 7-day injured list Monday due to bilateral plantar fasciitis.
The severity of Gasper's injury isn't clear, but the fact that he's battling plantar fasciitis on both feet suggests he'll likely be sidelined for more than the minimum seven days. Gasper has put up a porous .488 OPS over 39 plate appearances with the Twins this season, but he's crushed Triple-A pitching, slashing .318/.418/.609 with 10 home runs in 40 games for St. Paul.

Twins' Mickey Gasper: Returned to Triple-A
The Twins optioned Gasper to Triple-A St. Paul on Thursday.
Gasper was up for one day as the 27th man during Wednesday's doubleheader versus the Guardians, and he did not make an appearance. The utility player has slashed only .176/.282/.206 during his time in the majors this season.

Twins' Mickey Gasper: Called up as 27th man
The Twins recalled Gasper from Triple-A St. Paul to serve as the 27th man for Wednesday's doubleheader with the Guardians, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.
Gasper wasn't available for the resumption of Monday's suspended game earlier in the day, but he'll join the Twins for Wednesday's regularly scheduled contest before likely heading back to Triple-A. The utility infielder has logged 39 plate appearances with the Twins on the season and has slashed .176/.282/.206 with no home runs or stolen bases.

Twins' Mickey Gasper: Moved to Triple-A
The Twins optioned Gasper to Triple-A St. Paul on Monday.
Gasper has provided the Twins with versatility but not much else this season, managing just a .488 OPS over 17 contests. He's among the corresponding moves to clear space on the active roster for the returns of Royce Lewis (hamstring) and Willi Castro (oblique) from the injured list.

Twins' Mickey Gasper: Back on bench Thursday
Gasper is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Guardians.
Gasper will hit the bench after he had served as the Twins' designated hitter in three of the past four games while going 2-for-11 with an RBI and a run. The switch-hitting 29-year-old could see an uptick in opportunities while the Twins are without Royce Lewis (hamstring), Matt Wallner (hamstring) and Willi Castro (oblique), though manager Rocco Baldelli may prefer to rotate a number of players at the DH spot rather than settling on Gasper as the team's primary option.

Twins' Mickey Gasper: Rejoins big club
The Twins recalled Gasper from Triple-A St. Paul on Thursday.
Minnesota optioned Gasper to Triple-A less than a week ago, but he'll be eligible to rejoin the big club after super-utility man Willi Castro (oblique) was placed on the injured list in a corresponding move. Gasper will serve as an emergency No. 3 catcher and will provide depth at three infield spots as well as left field, but he's unlikely to be in store for regular playing time after going 2-for-18 at the plate over 10 games in his initial stint with the Twins this season.

Twins' Mickey Gasper: Optioned to Triple-A
The Twins optioned Gasper to Triple-A St. Paul on Friday, Phil Miller of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.
Gasper will head back to the minors even with Christian Vazquez working through a right hand injury, leaving Ryan Jeffers as the only healthy catcher currently on the Twins' roster. Gasper has appeared in 10 major-league games for Minnesota this season, going 2-for-18 with four walks and one run scored in 22 plate appearances.

Twins' Mickey Gasper: Gets first MLB hit
Gasper got his first major league hit while going 1-for-3 in Saturday's loss against St. Louis. He went 0-for-18 in 13 games with the Red Sox last season.
Gasper was a surprise starter at DH against a right-handed pitcher, but Twins manager Rocco Baldelli was likely just getting some bench players work early in the season. Gasper looked healthy after suffering a left ankle laceration that required six stitches last week. His start also shows the Twins have confidence in him after he posted a .289/.404/.395 slash line this spring.

Twins' Mickey Gasper: Cracks Opening Day roster
Gasper said that he's fine after suffering a left ankle laceration in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Red Sox, and noted Monday that he has been told he made the Twins' Opening Day roster, Bobby Nightengale of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.
Gasper received six stitches to seal the cut, which he suffered when he was spiked by teammate Brandon Winokur while attempting to field a groundball. The laceration is not expected to hinder him moving forward, and Gasper has earned a spot on the Opening Day roster after slashing .289/.404/.395 this spring. The switch hitter is capable of handling first base, second base and catcher.

Twins' Mickey Gasper: Receives stitches on ankle
Gasper received six stitches for a left ankle laceration after leaving Sunday's spring game against the Red Sox, Phil Miller of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.
The 29-year-old collided with teammate Brandon Winokur while attempting to field a groundball and appeared to catch a spike. Gasper was acquired from the Red Sox in December and hit well during spring training with a .289/.404/.395 slash line in 47 plate appearances.

Twins' Mickey Gasper: Hot start to spring at plate
Gasper is hitting .350 (7-for-20) with a home run in seven games this spring.
Gasper is a long shot to make the roster as a utility player, but he's drawing raves from management and could be an option if there's an injury among the team's other utility players. Gasper has been playing mostly second base this spring but is also a catcher and has played first base. He's not a plus defender behind the plate, but his versatility could see him called up from Triple-A at some point this summer. He hit .328/.439/.970 with 12 home runs between Double-A and Triple-A last season.
