Twins acquire Eric Wagaman in swap with Marlins
The Twins completed a small trade on Friday, acquiring first baseman Eric Wagaman from the Miami Marlins for minor league pitcher Kade Bragg.
Wagaman, 28, played in 140 games last season for Miami, hitting .250 with a .674 OPS. He hit nine home runs and drove in 53 runs, while primarily playing first base. He also saw some time at third base, in left and right field and at DH last season. Though he was drafted by the New York Yankees in 2017, Wagaman debuted with the Los Angeles Angels in 2024 before seeing regular playing time with the Marlins last season.
The pickup comes after the Twins signed veteran first baseman Josh Bell to a one-year deal last month, their biggest move of the offseason to date.
Bragg is a left-handed pitcher whom the Twins selected in the 17th round of the 2023 draft. Last year, he posted a 2.94 ERA across 67 1/3 innings pitched — all in relief. He finished his season at Double-A Wichita. To make room on the 40-man roster, the Twins designated Ryan Fitzgerald for assignment. Fitzgerald debuted last season at age 30 after a long journey through the minor leagues and appeared in 24 games for the Twins.
