Minnesota Twins third baseman Jose Miranda went 1-for-4 at the plate with a two-run shot to power the Twins to a victory. Miranda has now made 10 consecutive starts at the hot corner and looks to have claimed the starting role. In his past 10 games, he has posted a strong .303/.324/.606 slash line with three long balls, five RBI, and a 1:4 BB:K. Currently, Miranda holds a stellar 14.8% strikeout rate, which should play well in points leagues. This is a big turnaround for the 25-year-old, as he struggled in the majors last season and finished with a poor .211/.263/.303 line and ended up spending half of the season in Triple-A. Miranda is worth adding in AL-only formats and deeper mixed leagues and could even be worth adding in standard formats if he continues this hot stretch.
Minnesota Twins third baseman Jose Miranda was hot at the plate during Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. The 25-year-old went 3-for-5 with a pair of doubles and two RBI during the blowout win over the Halos. This three-hit effort has boosted his slash line to .292/.320/.500 this season. Miranda also has a pair of homers, six RBI, and a stolen base on the year. Fantasy managers might want to snag Miranda while he's hot at the plate.
Minnesota Twins third baseman Jose Miranda went 2-for-4 with two runs and a solo home run in Thursday's victory against the Chicago White Sox. The home run would be Miranda's second in the year and gives him four RBI. The once heralded prospect opened the season in Triple-A St. Paul, but he has been playing most days with Royce Lewis (quadriceps) and Carlos Correa (oblique) both sidelined. Since his call-up on April 8, Miranda is hitting .231 in 39 at-bats. He is worth watching in deeper formats, due to potential and opportunity, but he could also be optioned back to St. Paul when Correa and Lewis return if he does not start hitting more.
Minnesota Twins infielder Jose Miranda was recalled from Triple-A St. Paul ahead of the team's matchup against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Monday. With right-handed pitcher Daniel Duarte heading to the 15-day injured list with a triceps strain, Minnesota called up Miranda to help an offense that has scored just 12 runs over the last 45 innings. The third baseman bounced around the majors and minors last season and only hit .211 with three home runs and 13 RBI across 40 games with the Twins. As a result, he isn't a player that fantasy managers should be running to the waiver wire to pick up. However, in his last full season in 2022, he hit a respectable .268 at the plate with 15 HRs and 66 RBI across 125 games. So, he could be a player to consider in extremely deep formats.
Minnesota Twins third baseman Jose Miranda (shoulder) has gone 3-for-8 in Grapefruit League games this spring, all while serving as designated hitter. However, the 25-year-old expects to progress to the field early the week of March 4, with a defensive focus on first base. The former fantasy prospect dealt with right shoulder pain for all of 2023 and posted uninspiring numbers with both the Twins and Triple-A St. Paul. Miranda underwent surgery to clean up the scar tissue around the rotator cuff in his right shoulder at the beginning of October. While he may not have a big-league spot to start 2024, Miranda is worth keeping an eye on this spring to see if a healthier start can help him realize some of his potential.
