Career
[edit]Laweryson played college baseball at the University of Maine.[1] He was drafted by the Minnesota Twins in the 14th round, with the 419th overall selection, of the 2019 Major League Baseball draft.[2] Laweryson split his first professional season between the rookie-level Elizabethton Twins and Single-A Cedar Rapids Kernels, posting a combined 1.57 ERA with 63 strikeouts in 11 games (seven starts). He did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[3]
Laweryson began the 2025 season with the Double-A Wichita Wind Surge, and later received a promotion to the Triple-A St. Paul Saints; in 34 appearances for the two affiliates, he accumulated a 2-4 record and 2.86 ERA with 45 strikeouts and six saves. On September 12, 2025, Laweryson was selected to the 40-man roster and promoted to the major leagues for the first time.[4] He would make his debut the next day against the Arizona Diamondbacks, recording 2 strikeouts in 2 innings.[5]
