2025 Fantasy Outlook
Miranda resurrected his career after an injury-plagued 2023 season and put himself in position for an everyday role in 2024. Miranda hit just .211 with a .565 OPS in 2023 as he struggled with right shoulder issues that required offseason surgery to remove scar tissue from his labrum and rotator cuff. He began last season in the minors, but caught fire when called up in April by hitting .313 with nine home runs and an .852 OPS in his first 90 games, which included tying a major-league record by recording a hit in his 12 consecutive at-bats in early July. Like the rest of the Twins, he struggled the final six weeks by hitting .202 with a .491 OPS in his last 30 games, in part due to a back injury that required an IL stint. Miranda makes good contact due to a low strikeout rate (15.4%) and he was in the 83rd percentile in Squared-Up Rate (according to Baseball Savant). He didn't hit for as much power as in his breakout 2022 season, but may have been unlucky with a 6.3% HR/FB rate. His defense at third base has been mediocre to below average by most metrics and he doesn't hit for enough power to justify everyday duty at first base or DH. Still, he'll be in the mix for frequent duty at both corner spots again with the Twins as part of the infield mix. Read Past Outlooks
