The Marlins have traded veteran reliever Sergio Romo to the Twins, according to Betsy Helfand of the Pioneer Press.
Miami will receive a pair of prospects—first baseman Lewin Diaz and pitcher Chris Vallimont—in exchange for Romo, reports MLB Network's Jon Heyman.
Acquiring Romo provides much-needed assistance to the Twins' struggling bullpen, which ranks 14th in ERA (4.41) in Major League Baseball. (Minnesota's starting rotation is seventh with a 4.08 ERA.) One of the bullpen's latest implosions came in Wednesday night's thrilling 14-12 loss to the Yankees in 10 innings. The Twins' bullpen allowed nine runs in the final two innings.
