Gio Urshela Agrees to Minor-League Deal With Twins
Free-agent Colombian infielder Gio Urshela agreed to a minor-league deal with the Minnesota Twins on Monday that includes an invitation to major-league spring training, sources told Daniel Alvarez-Montes of El Extra Base. Urshela will try to win a big-league roster spot this spring after hitting .238/.287/.326 with a .613 OPS, no home runs, 20 RBI, 10 runs scored, 13 walks, and 40 strikeouts in just 59 games in 2025 with the Athletics. He was designated for assignment by the club in August and didn't latch on with another team before the end of the 2025 season. The 34-year-old will be nothing more than a bench player who can play the corner infield spots if he wins a roster spot with the Twins. Urshela has just one season with more than 20 home runs, and that came way back in 2019 with the New York Yankees. He holds a .270/.314/.407 career slash line with a .722 OPS and 73 home runs in 10 major-league seasons.
