Minnesota Twins 2018-2019 Offseason Trade Partner Profile: Pittsburgh Pirates

With the Minnesota Twins looking to re-tool their roster this offseason, there are many moves to be made. The Twins could go in two different directions, either try to contend this year or trade away some players to gear up for a run next season.

The Pittsburgh Pirates made an attempt last season to be contenders but fell short of their goal finishing 82-79 for 4th in the NL East. With the trade of Gerrit Cole many had thought the Pirates were going to rebuild but instead they decided to contend acquiring Chris Archer and adding a couple of other players.
