Moderator update:

(Rosenthal reports, Heyman reports on Rojas being included) Lopez traded to Twins for RHP Yennier Cano, Cade Povich, Juan Nuñez and and LHP Juan Rojas. LHP Cade Povich was a third-round pick out of Nebraska in 2021. Nuñez is a 21-year-old in rookie ball whom the Twins signed out of the Dominican Republic in 2019.

Wow!

If this happens they really need to get a ML starting pitcher they can insert into the rotation now, IMO. Peterson?

[Hank Scorpio]

Good.... slide The Mountain into the closer's role and get it movin'.

Any thoughts on who we would be targeting from the Twins?

Props to Andy Kosta at The Sun for beating the national scoopsters to this one.

It had better be a good return, given Lopez's dominance this year and two years of control remaining.

Damn Elias really doing it!

Probably for the best, relievers having sudden career years in their late 20s should pretty much always be traded unless you're a legitimate contender that year.
