2025 MLB Spring Training kicked off weeks ago for the Minnesota Twins. They have played a handful of games at this point, but perhaps with the most intriguing yet to come.
Introduced last season, the most exciting contest is the Spring Breakout game.
The Spring Breakout game is designed to highlight top prospects from an organization, and takes place separately from the traditional Grapefruit League schedule.
Rocco Baldelli’s squad is in Venice, Florida on March 15th against the Atlanta Braves, but the bigger matchup focuses on the minor league prospects.
Last year the for the Spring Breakout game the Twins hosted Tampa Bay at Hammond Stadium. This year they’ll square off against the Toronto Blue Jays at TD Ballpark in Dunedin.
Who made the Minnesota Twins Spring Breakout roster?
Last year the highlight of the Minnesota Twins Spring Breakout game was arguably Charlee Soto.
The 2023 first round pick showed off his blazing fastball at Hammond Stadium and it generated plenty of buzz from fans.
This year multiple top Twins prospects are already hurt, but Luke Keaschall is not, and he still paces the squad.
On the pitching side, the only rostered pitcher in the Spring Breakout game to rank in the Twins top 30 prospects is Travis Adams, who is on the list at #22.
That doesn’t mean the lineup doesn’t have the star power, however.
The entire roster is loaded with top prospects, as you’d expect a game of this ilk to be.
Keaschall is definitely the most noteworthy, though.
Despite needing Tommy John surgery last year, he absolutely raked and made his way to Double-A.
Now a consensus top-100 prospect, Keaschall posted a .303/.420/.483 slash line across 103 minor league games in 2024.
He has multiple paths to big league playing time this season, and betting against his major league debut seems fruitless.
