The Minnesota Twins have acquired catcher Alex Jackson from the Baltimore Orioles, replacing Christian Vázquez and bolstering their backup catcher role. Jackson, known for his strong defensive skills, brings impressive metrics such as three Caught Stealing Above Average, three Catcher Framing Runs, and an average Pop Time in the eighty-eighth percentile. He has played for several teams since his debut in 2019 and showed improvement last season with Baltimore. The Twins also secured a one-year deal with right-handed reliever Justin Topa, avoiding arbitration and strengthening their bullpen.
