Minnesota Twins News: Oswaldo Arcia Traded to Rays

The Oswaldo Arcia situation has been resolved with the Minnesota Twins sending him off to the Tampa Bay Rays for a PTBNL (player to be named later) or cash.

Arcia was designated for assignment back on June 16th and the Twins had 10 days to trade him or attempt to outright him. With two days to spare before the ten days were up, the Twins found a suitor in the Tampa Bay Rays.

The return was never going to very high for a DFA’d player. The other teams knew he’d soon be available on the waiver wire if he wasn’t traded.
