Chafin signed a minor-league contract with the Twins on Saturday that includes an invite to big-league spring training,
Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
Chafin turned in a 2.41 ERA over 33.2 innings with the Nationals and Angels in 2025, though his 1.43 WHIP suggests that a handful of lucky breaks helped to prevent runs from scoring against him. Minnesota's bullpen competition is wide open, so the left-hander could land an Opening Day roster spot with a strong Grapefruit League showing.
