If the Red Sox truly have ambitions of playing baseball in October, they need more reliability to protect their increasingly overworked bullpen.

Jeff Passan of ESPN reports there was an additional piece in the deal. Full trade, per ESPN sources: Detroit receives: RHP Chris Paddack and RHP Randy Dobnak Minnesota receives: C/1B Enrique Jimenez Dobnak is under team control through 2027.

The fourth-place Twins have no time to show that they can make a playoff run before this week's trade deadline.

The Minnesota Twins are set to be sellers at the trade deadline and the Houston Astros are interested in Willi Castro.

Bader has become a fan favorite in his first season in Minnesota. His late-inning prowess and Gold Glove-caliber defense make him an attractive rental player.

Nearly everything points to the Twins being sellers at the trade deadline, but will they stop at dealing impending free agents?

The Twins are open for business ahead of the MLB trade deadline, and Harrison Bader might be one of the first names to be dealt.

Of those, there is Sunday steam in the rumor mill regarding six of them: Duran, Jax, Coulombe, Ryan, Bader and Castro.
