The Minnesota Twins are likely to be at the bottom of the American League in 2026 after trading away most of their big league roster at the trade deadline last season.

Though the Twins are going to be bad, they are showing a willingness to sign veterans to trade at next season’s deadline to help their rebuild. The most recent of those signings comes in the form of All-Star reliever Taylor Rogers, who, according to The Athletic’s Aaron Gleeman and Ken Rosenthal, is finalizing a one-year deal worth $2 million.

The 35-year-old Rogers has been a solid reliever in his decade as a big leaguer and has notched 83 saves, and has a career ERA of 3.34.

Despite not performing down the stretch for the Chicago Cubs, Taylor Rogers should do well for the Twins

Rogers was one of the more valuable trade pieces at the deadline last year and failed to perform down the stretch for the Chicago Cubs, posting a 5.09 ERA in 17 games. Even though Rogers wasn’t great with the Cubs, he should be a lot better when pitching for the Twins next season.

Originally drafted by the Twins in the 11th round of the 2012 MLB Draft, Rogers spent the first six seasons of his career (2016-21) pitching for Minnesota, posting a 17-18 record with a 3.15 ERA in 314.2 innings. Rogers, in his career, has proven to be a “lefty specialist,” with a career batting average against lefties of .199 (.569 OPS), while allowing righties to hit .259 off him (.746 OPS).

The Twins needed to add bullpen arms, and by signing Rogers, they not only get someone to eat innings, but also serve as a valuable trade piece to help with their rebuild.
