Now that the Twins are long eliminated from playoff contention and far away from the media cycle, it’s as good of a time as ever to pick up some baseball cards of your favorite Twins. Here are my top 10 players to grab if you’re looking to add Twins players to your collection or maybe make a quick buck in the spring!

Number 10: Justin Morneau
Morneau is on the Twins broadcast regularly and some Twins fans whispered the idea of him being a managerial candidate. Morneau has an impressive baseball reference page for a guy who dealt with some very scary concussion issues in the middle of his prime. The trophy case includes: AL MVP, HR Derby Champ, two Silver Sluggers, a batting title, and four all-star selections. With Twins fans from my era starting to get adult money, I think Morneau is a guy who could see his values start creeping north.

Number 9: Matt Wallner
Let’s cut to the chase here, Wallner is a 40-homer season waiting to happen. What else does he bring to the table? A canon for an arm. He is a stereotypical right fielder that has potential to crank out highlights that get people pumped: 450+ foot homers and throwing 100mph from the outfield? Say less. A nasty hamstring injury got him early in the season but if he gets close to a full sleight of ABs, he should have a fun stat line that people will pay attention to.

Card To Collect: His Topps Chrome Rookie Autograph cards go for less than $5.

Number 8: Luke Keaschall
I wish my boy was higher on the list. I love Keaschall’s offensive profile, and I love how he plays the game, but his ability to stay off the IL is a huge question mark. The other thing that worries me is that he doesn’t really have a position. I thought he was very clunky at second base and threw poorly as well. Hopefully being farther out from tommy john surgery and being on an offseason throwing program will help in that department. He’s already become a fan favorite and for good reason, I’m really rooting for my guy, but he comes in at eight because there are some red flags and his prices are higher than most on my list.

Card to Collect: His ungraded Bowman 1st Chrome Autograph card goes for around $45.

Number 7: Royce Lewis
Public perception is close to all-time lows on the former 1st overall pick. That being said, a couple months of good health, good production, and positive vibes from Lewis could send card prices higher. Lewis finds himself in a very similar predicament to Byron Buxton, we’ve seen flashes of greatness, but can it be sustained? You don’t need to hope for a miracle here, if Royce can get in a rhythm with his physical health, I think he’s in the mix for making some all-star games and being a run producer for the foreseeable future.

Card to Collect: Not a huge risk plays here with his ungraded Topps chrome rookie autograph cards going around the $10 range.

Number 6: Joe Mauer
Rounding out the first half with a timeless classic. We will always remember ‘09 Mauer, the hometown hero and 1st ballot Hall of Famer Joe Mauer. As cards continue gaining popularity with all ages a player like Mauer (already in the hall of fame), has little chance of seeing huge increases in his value. However, his market should steadily increase over time. Be careful of newer stuff since it is being printed like crazy but cards from his playing days should be a sound investment or just a great addition to a collection.

Cards to Collect: He has chrome autos that are gettable around $70.

Number 5: Walker Jenkins
The consensus top prospect in the organization comes in at five because he comes with plenty of hype already. He will get an initial value jump when he gets called up to the big leagues, but he is going to need to really hit for his value to take another noticeable jump.

Card to Collect? That paired with his already higher cost, his ungraded Bowman 1st autograph card goes for around $125-$135.

Number 4: Byron Buxton
Buying cards of the best player on the team should be as safe a play as any right? I love Buxton, but it would be foolish to not consider the risk. His prices took a well-deserved jump this year but if he stacks a couple seasons like ‘25, pushes his career WAR over 40 and near 50, while hopefully staying a career Twin, he will have a very sound card market within the Minnesota fan base for a long time.

Card to Collect: His ungraded Topps Chrome rookie autograph card goes for around $30.

Number 3: Harmon Killebrew
Arguably the greatest Twin of all time. This is my Twins card equivalent to a high yield savings account. Being a hall of famer with 500 homers and a staple within the Minnesota fan base? That never goes out of style. The flip side is you’re probably not going to see a huge jump in value at any point for his cards even though I think he is widely undervalued by the hobby.

Card to Collect: You should be able to get a 1955 Topps Killebrew rookie in a PSA 3 for between $155-$180. 

Number 2: Torii Hunter
An all-time fan favorite and someone who is in the news! There was some speculation that Hunter might be a candidate to be named the next manager of the Twins. It was never going to happen. He also didn’t get the Angels managerial job.  If Torii had been named manager, I think we may have seen a nice bump in his card values. He is also very underrated by the baseball community as a whole. Nine Gold Gloves, 50.6 career bWAR, 353 Homers, 2452 hits, two silver sluggers, and a five-time all-star. He unfortunately was not a career Twin which would’ve helped his card values, but he did play 12 of his 19 big-league seasons.

Card to Collect: You can find Topps Chrome Autograph cards of Torii Hunter between $10-$20.

Number 1: Kaelen Culpepper
My favorite Twins player to collect cards of at the moment who comes with more risk since his highest level of play is only at the AA level. Between two levels of play in 2025, he put together a 20 homer, 20 stolen base season, and he cracked into the Top 100 prospects toward the end of 2025. MLB.com has taken notice and has ranked him as high as the number 52 prospect in all of baseball. After the Twins moved on from Carlos Correa, there is a clear opening at shortstop with Brooks Lee showing flashes with the bat but overall struggling mightily last season posting a bWAR of -1.0. Kaelen Culpepper has a gorgeous swing and a plus arm to stick at shortstop. If he has a strong spring, he will likely start in St. Paul and have a quick path to the big leagues next spring.

Card to Collect: His Bowman 1st Chrome autograph cards are gettable between $30-$40.
