Multiple Minnesota Twins Jersey Number Changes for 2025

It’s always exciting to buy the jersey of your favorite player. However, doing so right when they enter the league, particularly in baseball, can be a risky choice. Last season, Minnesota Twins 2nd baseman Brooks Lee wore number 72, which became somewhat a talking point.
The Twins will largely look the same from a roster standpoint in 2025. Rocco Baldelli will have different digits to work with when filling out his lineup card, though.
New numbers for multiple Minnesota Twins
We’re less than a month from pitchers and catchers reporting to Fort Myers for Spring Training. When the Minnesota Twins take the field, a couple of players will have new numbers. Six players will be changing the digits on their jersey.

Name | Old Number | New Number |
Michael Helman | 92 | 1 |
Brooks Lee | 72 | 2 |
Austin Martin | 82 | 16 |
DaShawn Keirsey Jr | 89 | 21 |
Simeon Woods Richardson | 78 | 24 |
Jair Camargo | 85 | 77 |
It’s not new that rookies are assigned uniform numbers based on availability. Only Simeon Woods Richardson, of this group, wore his for more than one season. With appearances in both 2022 and 2023, 78 followed him for quite a bit.

Helman takes Nick Gordon’s number, and the hope is that he can be more productive than the former #1. Tsuyoshi Nishioka is probably the most infamous wearer of #1 in Twins franchise history, and we all know how that went.

No one wore number two last year, but Lee will don it in 2025. There have been some very good second baseman in recent franchise history to use that digit. Both Luis Arraez and Brian Dozier come to mind, and its cool to see Lee now have it.
Both Martin and Keirsey Jr. leave their 80’s behind. Martin takes over 16, which was worn by newly hired Twins front office employee Ehire Adrianza. 21, which is Keirsey Jr.’s new number, has been worn by players such as Delmon Young, Eric Milton, and even Pat Mahomes.
There have been a bunch of players to wear 24 for just a single season. Woods Richardson should have it for longer than that. Maybe you can even repurpose an old Trevor Larnach uniform.

The last member of the group, Jair Camargo, opted to stay with a high number. He will rock 77, which has only previously been used by four players in franchise history.
