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

On bench after five straight starts
OFMinnesota Twins
May 19, 2025
Keirsey is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Guardians.
ANALYSIS
With injuries mounting for the Twins in recent days, Keirsey has been one of the main beneficiaries. He started in each of the last five games, going 3-for-19 with a home run and a stolen base during that stretch. Until the Twins get one of Byron Buxton (concussion) or Matt Wallner (hamstring) back from the injured list, the left-handed-hitting Keirsey could have a regular spot in the outfield against right-handed pitching, but Keirsey will hit the bench Monday while southpaw Logan Allen toes the rubber for Cleveland.
