[Deleted]

TEX sends:



Tekoah Roby, P (TEX) - Standard MiLB
Jordan Lyles, SP (BAL) - 2022: $700K, 2023: FA


MIN sends:



Felix Valerio, MI (MIL) - $801K, MiLB



I've been kicking the tires on Valerio, who I see as a prospect on the rise, for awhile so happy we were able to get this done. I hope moving Roby doesn't come back to bite me - I think he could be good and is flying a little under the radar right now cause of his injury this year. Great dealing with Judge and best of luck this year!

The Twins confirm!

I was shocked to see Lyles go for as cheap as he did in free agency, and Sean and I were able to amend a previous trade discussion surrounding Valerio for Roby. Valerio is someone that I like quite a bit, but the ability to add a cheap arm who should be able to eat a lot of innings along with what I'd consider a very underrated prospect in Roby is well worth it. Great talks with Sean on this one!
