I could give you Minnesota team stats up to this point of the season, but the fact is this is a much different Twins roster than it was ten days ago. With the team up for sale, management gutted the roster, trading away nine players from their MLB roster, including Carlos Correa, Harrison Bader, Willi Castro, Chris Paddack, Louis Varland, Griffin Jax, Jhoan Duran, Danny Coulombe, and Brock Stewart.

That leaves just a few starters, combined with half the team from Triple-A, and a few waiver claims. The Twins are just a few games back of the Royals in the standings, but there is a much bigger gulf in talent than there was when the teams played back in May.
