But the draft is a known crapshoot, especially where pitchers are concerned (hello, Kohl Stewart and Tyler Jay), so the real key is identifying players in other organizations and getting them at just the right time. Three of Cleveland's top star...5912Mon, 31 Jul 2017 00:45:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-trade-garcia-to-yankees-for-two-pitching-prospects-r5911/Garcia was traded to the Twins on Monday in exchange for Elizabethton RHP Huascar Ynoa. At the time, the Twins were in the thick of contention in the AL Central, and in the wild card. But things have gone sour for the Twins since. They are now well out of contention in both.

The A’s climbed back into it by scoring a run on a two-out single in the fifth and a two-out solo homer in the eighth.

In the second, things didn’t go as smoothly. He walked the first two batters, and then he gave up a line drive single to load the bases. That’s when he showed what he is capable of. He started by striking out Ryan Lavarnway.
