The Jorge Polanco trade has the most significant impact on the 2024 roster, but the club has also added a veteran hitter and bullpen pieces. Minnesota is still looking to add another outfield bat, so ot...15690Tue, 13 Feb 2024 12:15:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/why-swapping-nick-gordon-for-steven-okert-made-sense-on-both-sides-r15696/When Twins fans woke up Sunday morning, the team was still littered with fringy infielders on their 40-man roster, including Kyle Farmer, Austin Martin, Jose Miranda, and Nick Gordon.
