Minnesota Twins pitcher Chris Paddack is determined to make a comeback in the 2024 season, following the team’s success in 2023 where they won their first playoff series in a long time. Despite losing to the Houston Astros in the ALDS, Paddack stood out, pitching 3.2 innings, allowing only one hit, and striking out six.
Paddack, who has faced multiple injuries, including elbow reconstruction surgeries, is eager to remind everyone of his potential. In an interview with The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal, he expressed his determination, stating, “People forgot about me,” emphasizing his desire to showcase his skills once more.

Once considered a future star during his time with the San Diego Padres, Paddack’s career was hampered by injuries. However, with the Twins, he believes he can return to his previous form. The Twins are supportive of his efforts, recognizing the potential for a successful revival, as seen with other players who have thrived after changing teams.
With a fresh start in Minnesota, Paddack aims to regain his status as an effective pitcher. Twins fans are hopeful that he will become a reliable asset for the team in the upcoming season, as they look to capitalize on their recent success.
