The Twins selected Morris' contract from Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday.
Morris spent the entirety of 2025 at St. Paul, where he turned in a 4.09 ERA and 1.34 WHIP alongside an 89:28 K:BB over 94.2 innings. His addition to the 40-man roster will grant him protection from the Rule 5 Draft in December and improve his chances of winning a spot in Minnesota's rotation during spring training.

Twins' Andrew Morris: Lands on 7-day IL
Rotowire
Triple-A St. Paul placed Morris on its 7-day injured list Saturday due to a right forearm strain, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.
Morris likely suffered the injury during his most recent start against Toledo on Thursday, when he allowed two runs on three hits and four walks while striking out eight across four innings. He'll undergo further tests to evaluate the severity of the injury, but Morris will likely be shut down from throwing beyond the minimum seven days. Across 13 starts at the Triple-A level this season, Morris has posted a 4.41 ERA, 1.62 WHIP and 60:24 K:BB over 63.1 innings.

Twins' Andrew Morris: Raised profile at Triple-A
Rotowire
Morris could be the top candidate to be called up if the Twins have another opening in the rotation, Matthew Leach of MLB.com reports.
Morris' numbers at Triple-A St. Paul aren't overly impressive (3.86 ERA, 1.62 WHIP, 12.3 K-BB%), but the Twins lack a clear standout pitcher in the minors who would leapfrog the 23-year-old right-hander if a rotation spots open up. With recent injuries to Pablo Lopez (shoulder) and Zebby Matthews (shoulder), the Twins have already plugged David Festa and Simeon Woods Richardson into the rotation.
