Twins Designate Derek Law For Assignment

By Connor Byrne | May 18, 2021 at 4:46pm CDT

The Twins have recalled right-hander Cody Stashak and designated fellow righty Derek Law for assignment, per Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press (Darren Wolfson of 5 Eyewitness News previously reported on Law’s DFA). The team also placed righty Shaun Anderson on the 10-day injured list with a quad strain.

Law, whom the Twins signed to a minor league contract in the winter, didn’t last long on their 40-man roster. Minnesota selected Law on May 8, after which he tossed 6 1/3 innings of 11-hit, six-run ball with nine strikeouts against six walks.

The 30-year-old Law previously pitched with the Giants and Blue Jays from 2016-19. He owns a 4.38 ERA with a 22.5 percent strikeout rate and a 10.0 percent walk rate in 172 2/3 major league innings.

    Surprised this was legal, since it was against the Law.

      Also the only consistently reliable, back-end option in that 2016 bullpen.

    Law looks like a 4A pitcher who should go to the NPB if he wants to iron out his problems and get more money.

    As a Cubs fan, I remember Cubs had a pitcher Neil Ramirez. had one good year and then got 10 chances as everyone kept thinking maybe that rookie year can come back. It almost never does. My guess is he ends up overseas or out of baseball in 2 years.
