"This year's Minnesota Twins team is bad. Like, most losses in baseball bad. Like, less than half as many wins (25) as the Texas Rangers (51) bad." Last year at the trade deadline the Twins were 54-49 and the Rangers were 50-53. The Rangers went out and got Cole Hamels a top of the rotation pitcher, the Twins got Jepsen. The Rangers went up made the playoffs and the Twins went down missed the playoffs. Two teams with good farm systems at the same place in the standings last year one goes for it with a big trade the other nibbles around the edges. How'd it work out?
