MINNESOTA, AUG 3 – The Twins traded 40% of their roster after consecutive losing seasons to acquire top prospects like Taj Bradley and Eduardo Tait as part of a long-term rebuilding plan.
- The Minnesota Twins entered a major rebuild in 2025 after trading away 40% of their 26-man roster at a dramatic recent trade deadline.

- The team acquired promising young prospects including Kendry Rojas, Eduardo Tait, Ryan Gallagher, Hendry Mendez, and Mick Abel to anchor the refreshed farm system.
- Rojas posted a 3.46 ERA with 62 strikeouts pre-trade, Tait ranked as the third-best prospect traded this deadline, and Gallagher features advanced pitching skills as a potential future rotation piece.
- Twins leadership acknowledges the need for a new approach, expecting prospects to develop while ownership changes loom, with hopes this rebuild could lead to sustainable success.
