Mickey Gasper

29-Year-Old CatcherC
Minnesota Twins AAA
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Gasper is a utility player who can play catcher along with second base and 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 for the Red Sox before his offseason trade to the Twins. He could be a late bloomer at age 28 who finds a bench role in the majors. Read Past Outlooks
$Signed a one-year contract with the Twins in March of 2025.
Optioned to Triple-A
CMinnesota Twins  AAA
April 18, 2025
The Twins optioned Gasper to Triple-A St. Paul on Friday, Phil Miller of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
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.
