  • Twins' Ricardo Olivar: Shelved with knee sprain

    Rotowire

    Triple-A St. Paul transferred Olivar from the 7-day injured list to the 60-day IL on June 4 while he recovers from a right knee sprain, Twins writer Brandon Warne reports.

    The Twins haven't ruled Olivar out for the season, but he'll be on the shelf through at least the end of July while he recovers from the knee injury. After posting a .978 OPS at Double-A Wichita to begin the campaign, Olivar was promoted to Triple-A on May 20 and had slashed .259/.259/.556 with two home runs, two doubles and one stolen base in seven games for St. Paul before spraining his knee.

  • Twins' Ricardo Olivar: Hot start at High-A

    Rotowire

    Olivar is hitting .292/.409/.528 with five home runs in 30 games for High-A Cedar Rapids. "He controls the strike zone, and then when he does get a pitch in the zone, he gets a barrel to it and does some damage," Kernels Manager Brian Dinkelman told the Cedar Rapids Gazette. "If you can catch and have at-bats like that, I think there's always a chance for you to make your way up the (organizational) rankings and get to the big leagues."

    Oliver is a bit old for his level at age 22, but he's a catcher who has shown good power and a good eye at the plate with a 15.9% BB% and just a 18.9% K%. The 2019 international signing out of Venezuela could be a late bloomer to watch.
