2026 Fantasy Outlook
Rojas has made nine starts at Triple-A and was added to the 40-man roster this offseason, so he could be an option for the Twins rotation sometime this summer. The 23-year-old southpaw was acquired from Toronto at the deadline in the Louis Varland deal. Rojas has a 7.24 ERA and 2.23 WHIP in 32.1 innings at Triple-A after dominating at Double-A (37.3 K-BB%) in four starts. Most of Rojas' struggles (eight of nine starts) came with his new organization, and it's possible the Jays sold at the perfect time on Rojas. He looked very exciting at Double-A, logging a career-best 57.1 percent groundball rate to go with his strikeout and control dominance, but most scouting reports don't give Rojas a plus pitch. For now, he projects as a back-end starter who is nearly big-league ready. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a one-year contract with the Twins in March of 2026.
Bullpen session scheduled
Rojas (elbow) will throw a bullpen session Wednesday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
Rojas was cleared to begin throwing last week, and he's now been cleared to do so off the mound as the next step in his recovery from elbow inflammation. He'll start off by throwing about 25 pitches and look to build up his workload during later mound sessions.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Should join 40-man roster
Rojas is likely to be added to the Twins 40-man roster ahead of the Rule 5 Draft, reports Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic.
Analysis
After being acquired from the Blue Jays in the Louis Varland trade last summer, Rojas struggled to a 6.59 ERA in eight starts with Triple-A St. Paul. Despite those poor numbers, the Twins aren't likely to leave the 23-year-old lefty unprotected for the Rule 5 Draft so quickly after acquiring him.
