Twins Confirmed Buyers at Deadline, Bullpen Top Priority
Minnesota's GM went on record saying the front office has been planning to buy, with the bullpen identified as the key area of need.
Twins GM Jeremy Zoll told reporters the team is approaching the trade deadline as buyers after a competitive first half. Bolstering the bullpen — ranked among the worst in the league — is the stated top priority. The Twins sit at .500, a half-game behind Cleveland for the AL's final Wild Card spot and 2.5 games back in the AL Central. The deadline is five days away.
