Minnesota Twins OF Generating Trade Buzz Ahead of the Trade Deadline, Per Reports

With the Major League Baseball trade deadline looming on Tuesday, Minnesota Twins outfielder Trevor Larnach is reportedly generating interest from the New York Mets and San Diego Padres.

Both teams are longshots to factor into this season's playoff picture, but Larnach could be a piece as they look to reset for next year while making a modest run this year.

The Mets are 6.5 games back of the final wild card spot entering play on Monday, while the Padres are 5.0 games back, giving themselves a more plausible path to the playoffs - albeit still unlikely. 

Per MLBTradeRumors:

Larnach is only a couple of years removed from being a top-100 prospect, though he has a modest .223/.315/.380 slash line over 669 career plate appearances. This lack of performance and a season-ending core muscle surgery in 2022 have kept Larnach from really establishing himself in the majors, not to mention how the Twins’ outfield depth has led to Larnach spending a lot of extra time at Triple-A.
