Scouting Report: Johan Rojas
Overall
Summary
Kendry Rojas is a 6-foot-2 left-handed pitching prospect for the Minnesota Twins (MLB Pipeline No. 10 overall Twins prospect). Recently recalled to the majors, he made his first major-league start against the Astros, throwing four scoreless innings with 10 swinging strikes on 46 pitches. Previously dominated minor-league hitters with an 11.6 strikeout-to-walk ratio in the Blue Jays organization before being traded to Minnesota at the 2025 deadline. However, scouts note he struggled in Triple-A and has command issues that need refinement for sustained major-league success. Manager Derek Shelton praised his stuff, noting "when he puts the ball on the plate, he causes issues." Rojas is being developed as a starter after pitching in relief.
Strengths
