Stl / Min Trade

[Minnesota Twins]

The Twins trade

Jorge Lopez, SP (Bal) 2022: 1 mil

To the St. Louis Cardinals for

Albert Pujols, 1B (STL) 2022: 0.55m

The twins needed some 1st base depth and the cost of Lopez who struggles a bit in the AL East was acceptable for us to lose. While we don’t expect much from aging Albert this gives us a bit more offensive flexibility which to us is more important than the backup arm.

Thanks Cardinals for the deal.

[STL Cardinals]

Accept. With Olson and Cruz, wasn’t gonna be able to use Pujols as a lefty masher, so trade him to a team that possible could. Deal!
