Bowden’s article was/is click bait. It’s his job to write articles that get people to read and comment. That being said most of the trades proposed involving large and small market teams tend to favor the larger market. I don’t like the idea of the Twins trading Ryan, Lopez, or Ober. If they did it would have to address a current need and make them better or neutral, not worse.
Ride Paddack to the deadline and flip him for some prospect. Thats more realistic but not as flashy as dropping Joe Ryan into your article.
