The Minnesota Twins have opted to retain reliever Jorge Alcala by exercising his $1.5 million club option, hoping for a bounce-back season after a challenging finish in 2024.

Alcala recorded a 3.24 ERA over 54 games, but struggled post-All-Star break, leading to his demotion to Triple-A. Despite a promising start, injuries have plagued his career since joining the Twins in 2019.

Additionally, the Twins have chosen not to extend options for Kyle Farmer and Manny Margot, making them free agents.
