He’s Jovani Moran. He attended Carlos Beltran’s Baseball Academy growing up in Puerto Rico and spent six years in Minnesota’s minor league system before making his debut for the Twins in 2021. The 27-year-old lefty has thrown 91 innings since, and if that seems like a low number, it is: he’s coming from a stint on the full-season injured list in 2024. And if you’ve read Matt Gross’ article about the Red Sox making some volatile transactions this offseason and want to guess that Moran’s extended stay on the IL was from undergoing Tommy John surgery, you’d be absolutely right.
