Despite various trade rumors regarding right-handers Joe Ryan and Pablo López and center fielder Byron Buxton, The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal reported on Friday that the Twins "do not anticipate moving center fielder Byron Buxton or right-handers Joe Ryan and Pablo López, according to league sources briefed on their plans. Minnesota’s goal is to keep those players, build around them and compete in 2026."
Backing up Rosenthal's report, The Star Tribune's Bobby Nightengale reported on Monday that the Twins are planning to add a power bat and bullpen help this offseason, and the minority investors will be announced this month.
