HENNEPIN COUNTY, MINNESOTA, JUL 31 – The Twins traded three key players for top prospects after a losing streak post-All-Star break, addressing pitching and hitting struggles with future talent acquisitions.
- On July 31, 2025, the Minnesota Twins sold off nearly half of their roster by the 6 p.m. ET deadline, trading 40%.
- As of Thursday, the Twins, who are about $440 million in debt, decided to sell off assets as the trade deadline approached.
- On Wednesday, the Philadelphia Phillies acquired Minnesota Twins closer Jhoan Duran, while starting pitcher Chris Paddack and Randy Dobnak went to Detroit for Enrique Jimenez, and Harrison Bader was traded to Philadelphia for prospects on Thursday morning.
- With his new team, Chris Paddack is expected to anchor a Tigers rotation featuring All-Star Tarik Skubal after impressing in his debut with six innings and one run allowed against the Diamondbacks.
- The Twins will bring in outfielder Hendry Mendez and righthander Geremy Villoria, though the sell-off may hinder their 2026 postseason chances.
