The Minnesota Twins have made their trade-deadline intentions clear. They're buyers -- and they're buying pitching.
For the second time Friday, the Twins traded for pitching, sending minor league outfielder Jhomnardo Reyes to Baltimore in exchange for veteran right-hander Dean Kremer.
Early Friday morning, the Twins acquired reliever A.J. Minter from the New York Mets for a pair of prospects.
Kremer, 30, has gone 1-4 with a 6.50 ERA in seven starts this season. He began the season with Triple-A Norfolk before making two starts for the Orioles in April. A right quad strain landed him on the injured list before he was reinstated July 1.
Since making his major league debut in 2020, Kremer is 42-44 with a 4.37 ERA across 133 appearances (130 starts) spanning 707 2/3 innings, all with the Orioles.
Kremer was originally selected by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 14th round of the 2016 draft out of UNLV. The Orioles acquired him in July 2018 in the trade that sent Manny Machado to Los Angeles.
Reyes, 18, is ranked as a top-25 Twins prospect by multiple outlets. He hit .296 with 12 doubles, three triples, seven home runs, 31 runs, 44 RBIs and 14 stolen bases in 47 games with the Florida Complex League Twins before being promoted to Class-A Fort Myers on July 24. He was signed as an international free agent on Jan. 15 of last year.
The Twins are 3 1/2 games behind the Chicago White Sox for the American League Central lead and a half-game back of fellow Central foe Cleveland for the final AL wild-card spot.
The trade deadline is 6 p.m. ET on Monday.
