The Minnesota Twins are on a high right now, for them anyway. Hard to feel too good about yourselves when you’re still officially the worst team in the American League, standings-wise.
But, they are coming off a month in which they went 15-11, their first above .500 month since May of 2015. This past week, despite losing two games to the last place Atlanta Braves, the Twins mustered a 3-3 record.
Their front office, with interim GM Rob Antony pulling the trigger, secured a Top-100 prospect in return for Eduardo Nunez.
Today, he pulled off another winner by trading Fernando Abad to the Boston Red Sox for AAA reliever Pat Light, who can touch triple digits on the radar gun.
