According to MLBTR, Zack Wheeler (Mets) is ranked as the number one trade candidate. He&#x2019;s a free agent at season&#x2019;s end and the Mets are...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">8182</guid><pubDate>Tue, 30 Jul 2019 18:24:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins Trade Deadline: Final Touches</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-trade-deadline-final-touches-r8181/</link><description>Derek Falvey did a tremendous job of acquiring some initial relief help in the form of Sergio Romo. He looked like a fit for this club over the winter and netting him along with another intriguing prospect for a guy who was subject to 40-man addition is quite the execution.

The Twins continue their jaunt through the NL East with a trio of non-DH games. These two clubs haven&#x2019;t met since the 2016 season and Miami traveled to Target Field in that action. The Marlins have the worst record in the National League and own a -97-run differential. They&#x2019;re comi...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">8180</guid><pubDate>Tue, 30 Jul 2019 15:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Trade Deadline Thread: How Far Would You Go to Add an Ace?</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/trade-deadline-thread-how-far-would-you-go-to-add-an-ace-r8178/</link><description>Friday, La Velle E. Neal III of the Star Tribune reported that the Mets asking price for Noah Syndergaard is sky high. According Neal&#x2019;s sources, the Mets are &#x201C;eyeing both Lewis and Kirilloff as part of a package for Syndergaard.&#x201D;

While we can sit here all day breaking down his stats (don&#x2019;t worry there is plenty of that to come) there is just no substitute for what a calming...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">8179</guid><pubDate>Tue, 30 Jul 2019 04:25:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Is Alex Kirilloff Expendable?</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/is-alex-kirilloff-expendable-r8176/</link><description>Offensive Power
Kirilloff is coming off one of Minnesota&#x2019;s best seasons ever for a minor league player. Between Low- and High-A, he hit .348/.392/.578 with 71 extra-base hits in 130 games. He also showed a decent approach at the plate as he posted an 86 to 28 strikeout to walk ratio.

It is no surprise that the Twins are doing their due diligence and checking in on each and every player they are interested in potentially trading for.
