Lopez was one of the front office&#x2019;s key acquisitions at last year&#x2019;s deadline, but he struggled with the Twins.

Taylor Rogers was a fixture in the back end of the Twins bullpen for parts of six seasons &#x2013; but Pagan wasn&#x2019;t able to match t...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">14689</guid><pubDate>Fri, 28 Jul 2023 15:24:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>The Twins Need Another Reliever</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-twins-need-another-reliever-r14687/</link><description>The Twins bullpen is currently a house of cards held up by Griffin Jax and Jhoan Duran.

With injuries and uncertainty across the board throughout the rest of the receiving c...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">14687</guid><pubDate>Fri, 28 Jul 2023 13:20:44 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Right Now Is (Unfortunately) the Right Time to Trade Trevor Larnach</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-trevor-larnach-trade/</link><description>There seems to be a perception that Trevor Larnach has been a failure as a draft pick or development project. It's just not fair or accurate.

Obviously, there have been multiple changes to the Twins since that season, but one growing issue is the team's inability to hit left-handed pitching.
