GM Jeremy Zoll: Twins Will Be Buyers at Trade Deadline
Jeremy Zoll said the Twins are focused on bullpen upgrades and may pursue creative deals without parting with top prospects.
- The Minnesota Twins plan to supplement their roster ahead of the August 3 trade deadline, with the team remaining squarely in the playoff hunt after four months of play.
- Unlike last year's massive sell-off, the Twins are preparing for a different deadline, entering Wednesday's game against the Kansas City Royals with a 54-54 record after Royce Lewis's walk-off win at Target Field on Tuesday.
- General manager Jeremy Zoll identified the bullpen as the primary target, describing it as a 'work-in-progress since it was detonated at last year's trade deadline' while remaining open to a 'variety of creative paths.'
- Despite trade rumors surrounding Byron Buxton and Joe Ryan, Zoll expressed commitment to keeping the group together while improving the roster 'while not touching our top prospects.'
- With 32.7% playoff odds, manager Derek Shelton anticipates a 'flurry of activity' across the American League over the next seven days as front offices weigh trade proposals.
