## Resource

The Twins just snagged reliever Justin Lawrence from the Pirates for cash—yes, that’s right, no trade, just change of scenery. The 31-year-old righty, recently DFA’d by Pittsburgh, brings a solid track record with Colorado (11 saves in 2023) and a career ERA of 5.05 in 222 games. His 5.32 ERA this year with the Bucs wasn’t stellar, but with a new team and fresh start, he’s got a shot to shine. The Twins need to make a roster move to make room before tonight’s game against the White Sox—and this move signals their ongoing bullpen depth hunt. Low-risk, high-potential, and just what the Twins need. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
