Sano said Sunday that he's lost 58 pounds in an effort to stay healthy, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports. Sano had some visa issues that delayed his arrival at camp, but he reported Sunday and turned heads with his weight loss. The veteran is trying to get his career back on track after not catching on with any team last season and playing in just 20 big-league games in 2022. The Angels signed Sano to a minor-league deal in January with the hope that he can return to the level of production that led to 30-plus homers in both 2019 and 2021 while he was with the Twins....

Angels' Miguel Sano: Receives NRI from Angels
Sano signed a minor-league contract with the Angels on Tuesday that includes an invitation to spring training, Enrique Rojas of ESPN Deportes reports. Sano never caught on with another team after the Twins declined his option last offseason, but he's been playing with Estrellas Orientales in the Dominican Winter League this offseason. The 30-year-old went just 5-for-60 at the plate for Minnesota in 2022 and battled knee issues, but he has a couple 30-homer seasons under his belt, one as recently as 2021. Sano could be an option to fill the massive void created at designated hitter by Shohei Ohtani's departure.... See More ... See Less -
Miguel Sano: Playing winter ball
Sano is hitting .182 with two home runs and a .750 OPS in 27 games for Estrellas Orientales in the Dominican Winter League Sano worked out for MLB teams last winter but didn't find an offer that worked amid concerns about his health in coming back from a 2022 knee injury. It looks like Sano could try to sign with a MLB team this winter, but he'll likely need to prove himself in the minors or another league before receiving another big-league opportunity....

Miguel Sano: Plans to play winter ball
Sano (knee) plans to play winter ball in an effort to continue his career, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. He worked out for several teams this spring but didn't find a contract and returned to the Dominican Republic. Sano entered free agency in November after the Twins declined his option for the 2023 season. He managed only 71 plate appearances due to a lingering knee issue in 2022, and the knee was likely still a concern in the spring. It sounds like Sano hasn't given up on his major-league career, but he'll likely need to prove himself in the minors or another league before receiving another opportunity.... See More ... See Less -
Miguel Sano: Hosting workout
Sano (knee) will host a workout for scouts Feb. 7, Darren Wolfson of Channel 5 Saint Paul reports. Sano entered free agency in November after the Twins declined his option for the 2023 season. That decision came as little surprise after he managed only 71 plate appearances due to a lingering knee issue in 2022. However, he had posted an OPS of at least .750 in three consecutive prior campaigns, so it's possible he could get a small deal and earn some plate appearances at designated hitter for a club if he proves healthy....

Miguel Sano: Enters open market
The Twins declined Sano's 2023 option Monday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports. Declining the $14 million option was likely a no-brainer for the Twins, as Sano posted a .344 OPS in 71 big-league plate appearances in 2021 before struggling with injuries for the rest of the season. A minor-league or one-year MLB contract seems like the best-case scenario this offseason for Sano, who when healthy could still provide some home run power but nothing more.... See More ...

Twins' Miguel Sano: Transferred to 60-day IL
Sano (knee) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Tuesday, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports. It's not exactly clear why Sano was moved to the longer of the two injured lists just a few days after landing on the 10-day IL, but according to the report, "the Twins found something on his MRI." Sano will not be eligible to be activated until Sept. 28, so his season may very well be over.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Miguel Sano: Back on IL
The Twins will place Sano on the 10-day injured list Saturday with left knee inflammation, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports. He was just activated from the 60-day injured list earlier this week, so Sano obviously aggravated the left knee after putting some weight on it for full games. He went 0-for-6 with four strikeouts and zero walks in three games since getting activated. Alex Kirilloff should get extended playing time. Sano had surgery for a torn left meniscus in May....

Twins' Miguel Sano: Activated from IL
Sano (knee) was activated from the 60-day injured list Monday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports. Sano needed to be activated Monday to avoid an extension of his rehab assignment, and the team made the move official Monday evening. He was batting .093 with a home run, three RBI and one stolen base through 17 games before undergoing surgery in mid-May to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee. It's unclear as to the type of role Sano will play on the active roster.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Miguel Sano: Looming roster decision
Sano (knee) needs to be activated from the injured list by Monday or have his rehab assignment extended, which would require his permission, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports. Twins manager Rocco Baldelli declined to indicate what the team plans to do Monday. Sano is hitting .348 with three home runs in seven games for Triple-A St. Paul during his rehab assignment. After hitting just .093/.231/.148 in 17 games before undergoing surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee in May, it's not clear the Twins have a spot for him on the major league roster. If they don't activate him from the injured list, the Twins could designate him for assignment and hope he goes unclaimed and agrees to remain in the minors. The Twins have a $3 million opt-out in the last year of his contract after the season, so it's possible they could let him go. However, he's shown enough during his rehab assignment to at least be on the bench the rest of the season in the majors.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Miguel Sano: Rehab moves to Triple-A
Sanon (knee) will join Triple-A St. Paul to continue his rehab assignment, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports. Sano appeared in five games with the Twins' Florida Complex league team, and it was decided that he is ready to face tougher competition. It's not clear how much time Sano will spend at the Triple-A level, but there remains a chance that he could rejoin the big club prior to the All-Star break.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Miguel Sano: Begins rehab assignment
Sano (knee) began a rehab assignment in the rookie-level Florida Complex League on Monday, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports. Sano's injury has kept him out of action since the final day of April, but he is nearing the end of his recovery. Given the length of his absence, Sano figures to play a few games in the minors before the Twins consider adding him back to the big-league roster.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Miguel Sano: Nearing live BP
Sano (knee) continues to ramp up his running progression and recently started hitting, and he could participate in live batting practice as early as next week, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports. The 29-year-old underwent surgery to repair a torn meniscus in mid-May and appears to be nearing the latter stages of his rehab program. Sano will be eligible to be activated from the 60-day injured list at the start of July, though he shouldn't be expected to be ready at that point since he'll likely require a minor-league rehab assignment.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Miguel Sano: Transferred to 60-day IL
Sano (knee) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Saturday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports. Sano underwent surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee in early May, a procedure that typically requires 4-to-8 weeks of recovery time. Following his placement on the 60-day IL, the 29-year-old won't be eligible to return until the beginning of July. Alex Kirilloff was optioned to Triple-A St. Paul on Saturday, so Jose Miranda should serve as the Twins' primary first baseman.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Miguel Sano: Headed for meniscus surgery
Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said Tuesday that Sano is dealing with a torn meniscus in his left knee and will undergo surgery later this week, Britt Ghiroli of The Athletic reports. Baldelli noted that a timeline for Sano's return won't be established until after surgery is completed, but the 29-year-old is most likely looking at an absence of 4-to-8 weeks, based on players that have had similar procedures. Before landing on the 10-day injured list Sunday, Sano had appeared in only one of the Twins' preceding five games due to the knee issue. Even before the knee injury cropped up, Sano had struggled mightily at the dish with a .093/.231/.148 slash line and 32.3 percent strikeout rate over 65 plate appearances. Whenever Sano returns from the IL, he won't be a lock to recapture a full-time role at first base, where a platoon of Luis Arraez and Jose Miranda is expected to be in place until further notice....

Twins' Miguel Sano: Could require knee procedure
Manager Rocco Baldelli said Monday that Sano could require a procedure to address his knee injury, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports. The 29-year-old was officially placed on the 10-day injured list Monday, while Jose Miranda was promoted to serve as an additional right-handed bat with Sano sidelined. The first baseman will be evaluated in the next few days to determine whether he ultimately needs a procedure, but the fact that it's being considered suggests he's trending toward more than a minimal stay on the IL. However, even if Sano undergoes surgery, he'd likely be able to return prior to the end of the regular season, Joe Trezza of MLB.com reports.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Miguel Sano: Shifts to IL
Manager Rocco Baldelli said Sunday after the Twins' 9-3 win over the Rays that Sano (knee) will be placed on the 10-day injured list, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports. Sano's move to the IL coupled with the demotion of No. 3 catcher Jose Godoy to Triple-A St. Paul will help the Twins get down to 26 players with active rosters set to shrink from 28 heading into the second month of the season. The decision to deactivate Sano doesn't come as a major surprise after the 29-year-old experienced renewed soreness in his knee during Saturday's 9-1 win, when he returned to the lineup after a three-game absence. Luis Arraez picked up a start at first base Sunday and should serve as the primary replacement at the position while Sano is on the shelf.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Miguel Sano: Won't play Sunday
Sano (knee) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays. Luis Arraez will draw the start at first base while Sano sits for fourth time in five games after experiencing a setback with his knee in his return to the lineup in Saturday's 9-1 win. The Twins have yet to announce a roster move as the 1:10 p.m. ET opening pitch approaches, so the team is seemingly viewing Sano as day-to-day with the hope that he'll be back able to make his return to the lineup at some point during the four-game series in Baltimore that begins Monday.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Miguel Sano: Setback to sore knee
Sano left Saturday's game in the seventh inning after suffering a setback to his sore knee, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports. Sano appeared to wince when running the bases after drawing a walk in the sixth inning. He was replaced by Luis Arraez at first base in the seventh inning. Sano had missed the previous three games after tweaking his knee Tuesday. He may now need another day or two off before he's ready to return to the starting lineup.... See More ... See Less -
Twins' Miguel Sano: Back in action
Sano (knee) is starting Saturday's game against the Rays. Sano missed the last three games after tweaking his knee Tuesday, but he'll start at first base and bat eighth Saturday. Over his five appearances prior to his absence, he went just 2-for-19 with an RBI, a walk and eight strikeouts.... See More ... See Less
