Minnesota Twins are expected to trade closer Jhoan Duran by the end of the day

Post by KeeptheRamsinSTL »

From Bob Nightengale - The Minnesota Twins are expected to trade closer Jhoan Duran by the end of the day with the Los Angeles Dodgers in strong pursuit. The Twins have also been in heavy discussions with the Phillies but have not lowered their asking price of prized pitching prospect Andrew Painter.

Mo waits. Other teams try to cash in when they can.

8 closers currently on the market. Not 8 buyers. Waiting means they might get left out.

I think the Phillies are willing to deal Painter, they are just looking for the target worthy of throwing him at. They are deff all-in this year.

Going to take more than a rental for the #1 pitching prospect in baseball that is in AAA. Another major piece

Maybe they'd do it for someone like Ketel Marte or someone we aren't expecting on the trade block.

I am thinking Walker/Helsley or something like that. Maybe Donovan? They want to win now
