The Minnesota Twins traded away fan favorite and clubhouse leader second baseman Brian Dozier before the July 31 trade deadline. One of the biggest questions that continue to linger in fans’ minds is if Dozier had one of his patented second half hot streaks coming and if that would be enough to push the Twins back into contention. While Dozier is hitting .282/.429/.590 with an 1.018 OPS and three home runs, the veteran second baseman the Twins received in return has had a resurgence of his own.
Logan Forsythe came back to the Twins in the Dozier trade alongside prospects Luke Raley and Devin Smeltzer.
