Minnesota Twins
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Keirsey hit .302/.372/.478 with 14 homers and 37 stolen bases at Triple-A St. Paul and got a brief call-up to the majors in September. Speed and center field defense are his best assets. He's had decent walk and strikeout rates but it's not clear that he'll have the power to find any kind of regular role in the majors and his age (27) limits his upside. He could be an asset in fantasy baseball due to his speed in any scenario, but he's likely a long shot to win a roster spot this spring. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a one-year contract with the Twins in March of 2025.

June 15, 2025
The Twins recalled Keirsey from Triple-A St. Paul on Sunday.
Analysis
Keirsey will join the Twins as a replacement on the 26-man active roster for third baseman Royce Lewis (hamstring), who was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. As a result of Lewis' placement on the IL, super-utility player Willi Castro could end up seeing more of his starts in the infield, but Keirsey is more likely to be deployed as a pinch runner or late-inning defensive replacement than being used as an everyday player in the outfield. After winning a spot on the Twins' Opening Day roster, the 28-year-old slashed just .109/.136/.156 with one home run and five stolen bases across 66 plate appearances before he was optioned to St. Paul on May 31.
