June 25, 20197 yr Per Dustin Morse of the Twins, the team has activated IF Ronald Torreyes from the restricted list and DFAd LHP Gabriel Moya. Moya was hurt in spring training. He rehabbed and returned to the Red Wings but has an ERA over 7.
June 25, 20197 yr Too bad, I had high hopes for him once upon a time. Unless Adrianza's abdominal issue is supposed to keep him out most of the summer, I would have just DFA'd Torreyes, but Moya was one of several guys on the 40-man I wouldn't raise any objection to removing.

Never was a hard thrower though and had a funky delivery so was a long shot to make it. I am bummed out but this probably is a move that was going to happen sooner or later.

June 25, 20197 yr Can we still say the Twins won the JR Murphy trade??? Asking for a friend. I'm happy to have Garver, Castro and Astudillo, so I guess?
June 25, 20197 yr Can we still say the Twins won the JR Murphy trade??? Asking for a friend.Well, they got nothing, but it did open up space for Garver and Astudillo, so, meh, I guess.
June 25, 20197 yr Yes, I think we won it. The Yanks gave Hicks a big contract and he went right back to his old ways. Assuming the Twins window is opening, there will be many games against Hicks in the future. Murphy is long gone.
June 25, 20197 yr Can we still say the Twins won the JR Murphy trade??? Asking for a friend.So the new score for those still keeping track.... Parting with Hicks for the privilege of being able to roster Ronald Torreyes. . Gotta keep this alive...there must be a possible scenario out there still that has us winning this thing. Maybe a couple of injuries, and Torreyes is named WS MVP?
June 25, 20197 yr Yes, I think we won it. The Yanks gave Hicks a big contract and he went right back to his old ways. Assuming the Twins window is opening, there will be many games against Hicks in the future. Murphy is long gone.Seriously? Before the deal, Hicks put up more value than all the other players combined. And then he got hurt. And the deal had nothing to do with the trade, that's a separate transaction
June 25, 20197 yr I'm happy to have Garver, Castro and Astudillo, so I guess?How's about having Garver, Castro, Astudillo AND Hicks as a 4th OFer? Because Hicks has nothing to do with any of those three.
June 25, 20197 yr Seriously? Before the deal, Hicks put up more value than all the other players combined. And then he got hurt. And the deal had nothing to do with the trade, that's a separate transaction True statements. However, it's also true that the Yankees will have Hicks until 2026, and I don't expect him to be good for that entire time. This will not only help the Twins, but will also help every team in the AL. Edited June 25, 20197 yr by Doomtints
June 25, 20197 yr If no one claims him, the Aaron Hicks trade tree can live on!Maybe they'll trade Moya for international bonus money and another branch will grow on the tree!
