The Minnesota Twins reportedly completed a formality with two of their veteran players who could be trade targets in the month of August for contending teams. According to a report from Mike Berardino of the Pioneer Press, both Logan Morrison and Joe Mauer have cleared waivers. That leaves the Twins now able to negotiate a trade with any major league team.
While these two players are both first baseman, they really couldn’t be in any different of a position when it comes to their role and standing with the Twins. Mauer is the golden boy of Minnesota.
