They\u00a0shed ten players, including closer Jhoan Duran\u00a0and shortstop Carlos Correa, with the playoffs a long shot. Days later, the Pohald family announced they would not be selling the franchise. USA Today\u2019s Bob Nightengale reported Sunday that the Twins\u2019 lack of ownership change\u00a0has many thinking more trades\u00a0could be coming, including Joe Ryan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow that the Pohlad family decided to hang onto the club after no one met their asking price of $1.7 billion, the baseball industry is curious to whether they\u2019ll continue to dump payroll by trading starters Joe Ryan, Pablo Lopez, and Bailey Ober this winter, further infuriating the fanbase,\u201d Nightengale reported.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0Twins almost dealt Ryan at the deadline to the Boston Red Sox. The idea that it could happen, and a false report that it already had, sent the fanbase into a frenzy. Not only were they dealing their top relievers, but they were considering moving their ace. But the pending ownership change gave fans hope that the trades were behind him.<\/p>\n<p>Then, just days after the deadline, the Pohlad family announced they were not selling the Twins. It changed the outlook of the club, as they have not been known to spend in free agency. The 2023 AL Central title feels like ancient history with the current 2025 roster and the immediate future.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"ac_104701789\" class=\"article_chunk type_51\"><center><\/p>\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?dnt=true&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1957132873766510696&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fclutchpoints.com%2Fmlb%2Fminnesota-twins%2Ftwins-rumors-3-trades-further-infuriate-fans-ownership-surprise&amp;sessionId=03566dc06063d0870132e45d4116e9166b903cb5&amp;siteScreenName=yardbarker&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=500px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"1957132873766510696\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><\/center><\/div>\n<div class=\"aditude_inline_container aditude_ic_2\">\n<div id=\"aditude_article_inline_2\" class=\"aditude_div\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"ac_104701790\" class=\"article_chunk type_50\">\n<div class=\"froala-view custom-theme \">\n<p>Nightengale also speculates about the Twins potentially trading Pablo Lopez and\u00a0Bailey Ober.
