Why Posterior is asking.

As of 2026-08-15, the Twins are 60-63, tied for second in the AL Central and within a game of the final AL wild-card spot. Per the Posterior free-agency watch, Josh Bell's contract includes a mutual option for 2027. Mutual options require both sides to agree and are typically decided within days after the World Series.
