Twins Land LHP A.J. Minter from Mets in Bullpen Boost
Minnesota adds a veteran left-handed reliever ahead of the trade deadline, sending two infield prospects to New York.
The Minnesota Twins acquired left-handed reliever A.J. Minter from the New York Mets in exchange for minor league infielders Bruin Agbayani and Billy Amick. Minter posted a 2.35 ERA in 23 innings this season before a left lat injury ended his year after 13 appearances. The Twins bullpen ranked fifth-worst in MLB with a 4.92 relief ERA, making the move a clear upgrade for a team one game out of a wild card spot. The Mets, holding the second-worst record in the NL, are expected to move additional players before the deadline.
