There have been conflicting reports over how close the Twins came to dealing Ryan to the Red Sox, and\u00a0the latest intel\u00a0comes from Jon Heyman of the New York Post.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\"><em>&#8220;The Red Sox came late too for the ultra-busy Twins, who somehow found time to trade nearly 40 percent of their roster (10 of 26). Top Red Sox prospects Franklin Arias (SS), Jhostynxon Garcia (OF) and Payton Tolle (LHP) all were mentioned (as was INF Marcelo Mayer), but the Twins didn\u2019t want to rush into trading their ace, especially when controllable starters bring comparable value in winter.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">The overall impression seems to be that there was not enough time left before the deadline for the Twins and Red Sox to reach an agreement on a deal involving Ryan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">Considering the Twins\u00a0were among the most active team at the deadline, chances are they likely were not fully engaged with the Red Sox on a potential trade of their All-Star pitcher.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"scroll-mt-24 my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">This leaked Joe Ryan package makes Twins look scared to commit<\/h2>\n<p>During the weeks leading up to the deadline, the idea of the Twins moving Ryan didn&#8217;t make complete sense. The impression was that the Twins were going to move their rental players at the deadline while having an eye on returning to contention in 2026.<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"article-content\">Now, it seems that the Twins are engaged in a true rebuild.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">The stage is now set for the Twins to trade Ryan this offseason.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">The good news is that the market of teams interested in Ryan will likely extend beyond just the buyers that had interest ahead of the deadline. Ryan is the Twins&#8217; biggest trade chip heading into the offseason and could dramatically alter the outlook of this latest reset for the organization.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/main><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MLB insider outs Twins\u2019 decision to pass on real Joe Ryan deal Washington Nationals v Minnesota Twins | Brace Hemmelgarn\/GettyImages For a few seconds during the closing&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":75365,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-75361","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
