Dodgers, Twins To Swap Brock Stewart For James Outman

By Anthony Franco | July 31, 2025 at 2:47pm CDT

The Dodgers and Twins are reportedly in agreement on a one-for-one swap of reliever Brock Stewart for center fielder James Outman. Both players are on the 40-man roster, so there won’t need to be any corresponding transactions.

Stewart hasn’t gotten as much attention as former teammates Jhoan Duran and Griffin Jax at the back of Minnesota’s bullpen. He’s a strong late-game weapon in his own right. As with most Dodger pitching targets, he’s very effective on a rate basis but comes with significant durability questions. Stewart is healthy at the moment, and his presence should be a major boost to a floundering L.A. relief group.

The 6’3″ Stewart has fired 34 innings of 2.38 ERA ball on the year. He has struck out almost 30% of batters faced behind an excellent 14.7% swinging strike rate. He pairs that with a league average 7.9% walk rate and has done a good job avoiding hard contact. Stewart leads a five-pitch mix with a 96 MPH fastball and gets big swing-and-miss numbers on both his sweeper and changeup.

It’s a back-end profile. Stewart has picked up 14 holds and only blown one lead all season. Minnesota skipper Rocco Baldelli has used him behind only Duran and Jax on their leverage hierarchy over the past month. This is the second time in the past three years in which Stewart has been an underrated bullpen weapon. He posted a 0.95 ERA with a near-36% strikeout rate in 28 appearances two seasons back.

Health is the drawback. Stewart has appeared in parts of seven MLB seasons. He has never reached 40 innings. He’ll establish a new career-high workload in his first appearance after the trade. Stewart began his career with the Dodgers as a 2014 sixth-round pick. He logged parts of four seasons as a swingman before being lost on waivers to Toronto in 2019. He was out of MLB entirely over the next three seasons, largely because of 2021 Tommy John surgery.

Stewart reemerged with Minnesota in 2023. He was suddenly sitting around 97 MPH after working in the 91-94 range before the surgery. Stewart dominated for a couple months until experiencing renewed elbow discomfort that shut him down in late June. Last season, he was limited to 18 appearances by shoulder problems that necessitated arthroscopic surgery in August. He has been healthy this year aside from a brief season-opening IL stint related to a left hamstring strain.

The atypical career arc and lack of volume have tamped down Stewart’s earning power. He’s playing on an $870K salary that is barely above the league minimum. Stewart will go through arbitration twice more and won’t hit free agency until the end of his age-35 season. While the affordability meant that the Twins didn’t need to trade him, they also presumably felt this was the peak of his value. Stewart’s age and injury history meant there’d be real risk in holding onto him and hoping he’d remain this effective going into 2026.

It’s the first of what should be multiple bullpen acquisitions for Los Angeles. Dodger relievers rank 22nd in MLB with a 4.24 earned run average. They’re top 10 in strikeout rate but have not been as strong as expected. Tanner Scott has been wobbly and is now battling elbow inflammation. Kirby Yates has a 4.31 ERA despite excellent strikeout and walk numbers. Evan Phillips is done for the year. Michael Kopech and Brusdar Graterol could make late-season returns but have notable injury concerns.

While Stewart himself is far from a sure thing to stay healthy, he’s a nice get for a player whose hold on a roster spot seemed tenuous. The 28-year-old Outman hit 23 home runs and finished third in NL Rookie of the Year balloting two seasons ago. That came with a concerning level of swing-and-miss, however, and he hasn’t come close to that kind of production over the past couple years. Outman fanned at a 35% clip while hitting .147 in 53 big league contests last season. He’s batting .103 with 18 strikeouts in 44 trips to the plate this year.

Outman has remained productive against minor league pitching. He’s hitting .289/.378/.592 with 20 homers and 14 stolen bases in 70 Triple-A games this season. His .286/.386/.585 batting line over parts of three season there is strong even in the context of the Pacific Coast League. Outman’s production still comes with significant strikeout caveats. He’s a plus runner and defensive center fielder who doesn’t need to hit a ton to be a fourth or fifth outfielder. He’ll nevertheless obviously need to produce more than the .137/.245/.269 slash that he has managed at the MLB level over the past two seasons.

This is Outman’s final minor league option year. He can back up Byron Buxton in center or spend the remainder of the season at Triple-A St. Paul. The Twins would need to decide whether to carry him on the Opening Day roster next season or expose him to waivers.

ESPN’s Jeff Passan first reported the Dodgers wee nearing a deal for Stewart. Alden González of ESPN reported Outman was going back, while Bobby Nightengale of The Minnesota Star-Tribune confirmed it was one for one.

        Going to be hard to fit everyone

        (this is mostly me thinking outloud)

        They have 13 spots for pitchers

        0 Ohtani (counts as a position player)
        1 Snell
        2 Glasnow
        3 Yamamoto
        4 Kershaw

        5 Treinen
        6 Scott
        7 Vesia
        8 Yates
        9 Kopech
        10 Stewart

        That leaves 3 more spots for
        Graterol
        Banda
        Any of May, Sheehan, Wrobleski, Casparius, Sasaki, Dreyer, Gervase…

          One of the bullpen names needs to be moved to the rotation. They’ve been trying to go with six all season. Doubt Graterol or Sasaki pitch any meaningful innings this season, even assuming they come back at all. One of the others could be traded for the closer they need.

    As an aside, what I don’t like about all these moves is that the have-nots are raising the white flag on their seasons while the haves are stocking up. So for August and September, there will be more crappy teams and I think baseball gets less interesting for the duration of the season. It’s kind of a byproduct of the new playoff structure, maybe an unintended consequence, but maybe not. It does get a bit old for the East and West coast powerhouses to be draining out the rest of the teams for their talent.

      I see what you’re saying, but when do you give up the season, when you know mathematically the chances of making the playoffs be it because of talent or injuries or just having a bad season, as a front office you have to say we have to pull the plug and what better time to do it at the trade deadline. Your team has a few aged FA’s to be, or you get offers for some of your core players that you just can’t turn down. This time of year, is not only hard on the players, front office, fans. But as a D’Back fan it hard to say it just was not our season, seeing players as Suarez, Kelly, Naylor and Gannon be traded, but I also like to see the players and prospects they get back. and some of them playing the rest of this season on the ML roster and look forward to 2026.

      I agree. I get why they don’t die the most part but seems like teams just trade for organizational filler or failed guys who no longer fit in. The king’s ransom deals are rare and it’s rather embarrassing seeing teams with 5+ strong pen arms or starters while others have 1-2.

    His point makes sense in that Skubal may be gone by time other touted prospects are good at mlb level (if ever). Don’t be desperate reckless, but realize most prospects aren’t that good.

    This is the under the radar type of bullpen signing that should not surprise Dodger fans. If his 2025 numbers are sustainable it’s a great acquisition. But lots of doubt on him maintaining performance given lack of historical track record and equally important is that he hasn’t been able to stay healthy. He’s throwing harder than ever and with his injury history, his chances of being available postseason are as good as Glasnow’s.

          They spent that ton hoping they wouldn’t have to spend in July. Unfortunately few of the offseason bullpen moves have paid off. This means it is time to spend some prospect capital to plug those holes.

          BS_LA; Friedman wasn’t going to do that and possibly be burned again, especially if the cost was Hope or De Paula or Rushing or Freeland.

          No apparent logic here. Every signing or trade is a risk. The Dodgers put a lot of chips on Scott, but the bet has obviously not paid off. They have the options of gambling that he will somehow turn back into the pitcher they thought he was when they signed him by the end of the season, or come up with another plan. Not making the other plan when the first one isn’t working means putting the entire season at risk. So that’s your real burn risk.

          I still think what the other clubs were asking for just really gave Friedman heart burn. He’s stated multiple times this year and in the past, how much he dislikes having to make trades at the deadline. He’s also stated multiple times how much he dislikes having to overpay for relievers, especially at the trade deadline. With the injured pitchers returning, I think Friedman is gambling/counting on the help coming from within. I, for one, am very happy he didn’t trade away Hope, De Paula, Rushing, Freeland or Sirota. I am surprised that he dealt May. I would’ve thought he would keep him, convince him to go to the pen with maybe a spot start if needed and then tell him he wouldn’t be offered a Q.O. after the season so he would have a better chance negotiating with teams this off season without owing the Dodgers a draft choice. Like Buehler last year. I felt all along that Friedman wasn’t going to make a big splash this time.

          Nobody likes paying the deadline trade freight, but sometimes you have to do it or risk wasting everything else you’ve got invested. Friedman is saying that he made all the right choices in the offseason even if the results aren’t there yet. That’s a larger gamble than trading away a superfluous player for another player who can help you win. We’ve seen this movie before.

      It is the entire haul. Twins were fleeced.

        “Twins were fleeced” is becoming the automatic assumption when I see a Twins trade pop up. The Duran trade was also bad.

        It’s a trade for a constantly injured Brock Stewart. There is no fleecing in trades like this.

          It’s a fleece if one of the teams were better off releasing the player they traded. Outman is bad. Negative value for multiple years is more negative value

      You receive a young, cost-controlled outfielder who reliably pops out to second.

        …and that only happens when he’s not striking out a third of the time.

    Do the Twins really want a player whose last name indicates failure at the plate?

    “It’s the bottom of the ninth, bases loaded, stepping up to the plate: OUTMAN!”

    The Dodgers have no uninjured position players on the 40-man. If Muncy is not ready to return, another move must be coming, if only selecting a contract.

      He plays well as a fourth outfielder with plus defensive skills. In fact the Dodgers don’t have any other obvious candidates for that role with Outman gone.

    Whoever is making these trades for the Twins needs to be Terminated as they clearly have no clue as to the value of the players they are trading and an even larger lack of knowledge with the players they are receiving in return. Is there a “PLAN” in place or are they making trades just for the sake of making trades??

    Whatever to this trade man…..this is the Dodgers acting like the old Yankees bringing back someone from the past for literally no reason. Like separation anxiety or something.

    Dodgers getting rid of Outman seems like a win for them. Probably takes Bader’s spot on the Twins roster, maybe a change of scenery does him some good

    Best wishes to J. Outman in Minnesota. Guy played hard, with passion and was beyond solid in CF and on the base paths. Had problems with consistency at the plate. Hopefully he can improve things in that regard.
