Twins Trade Up for Lawrence

The Twins snagged reliever Justin Lawrence from Pittsburgh for cash, despite his mediocre 5.32 ERA this year, betting on his better underlying stats and strong 0.51 ERA last season. To make room, they sent down Kody Funderburk, who had solid surface numbers but struggled with strikeouts and walks, and a high FIP. Lawrence brings a nasty 95.6 mph sinker and better peripherals, giving the Twins hope he’ll be the upgrade they need. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
