The Minnesota Twins were one of the most active teams when it came to the non-waiver trade deadline July 31st. After trading away five players for a flurry of prospects the Twins could still make a few more trades in the month of August.
Throughout the month of August, the Twins and other major league teams will place players on waivers. If a Twins player is claimed by a team the Twins then have the opportunity to pull the player off of waivers, work out a trade with the team that claimed him or simply leave the player go to their new home.
