The Twins trail the Cleveland Guardians by three games for the third American League Wild Card spot and the Chicago White Sox by 4 1\/2 games for first place in the American League Central.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5u\">The MLB trade deadline is on Monday, Aug. 3, at 5:00 p.m. CDT. It&#8217;ll be interesting to see which direction Minnesota takes at the deadline. How the club performs from now until early Aug. will likely determine if the team sells or buys lightly\/stand pat.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5x\">It&#8217;s also possible the Twins could buy and sell at the same time. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.startribune.com\/minnesota-twins-mlb-trade-deadline-rumors-ryan-jeffers-joe-ryan-trevor-larnach\/601870619\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Bobby Nightengale of the Minnesota Star Tribune<\/a> wrote that there is a &#8220;growing sense&#8221; from other organizations that the Twins are open to moving Jeffers before the trade deadline. Jeffers, who is set to be a free agent at the end of the year, appears to be the top catcher on the trade market, <a href=\"https:\/\/fansided.com\/mlb\/mlb-insider-don-t-expect-mason-miller-to-be-dealt-plus-more-trade-deadline-intel-01ky7nhp423r\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">per FanSided&#8217;s Robert Murray<\/a>. With the New York Yankees and the Tampa Bay Rays both interested in Jeffers, the Twins may receive an offer for the catcher that&#8217;s too good to turn down.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-4\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"60\">The Twins could trade Jeffers and roll with Victor Caratini, who has been swinging the bat well lately, as the team&#8217;s starting catcher for the rest of the year. Minnesota could also &#8220;buy&#8221; by acquiring a starting pitcher and a reliever or two. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"63\">If Minnesota completely collapses between now and the deadline, then the team will likely fully sell. Trade candidates besides Jeffers include Josh Bell, Taylor Rogers and Trevor Larnach. Joe Ryan may be moved, but the trade buzz surrounding the star right-hander has died down lately.<\/p>\n<p>Twins&#8217; Field of Dreams Game uniforms revealed<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"69\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/puckettspond.com\/everything-twins-fans-need-to-know-about-2026-field-of-dreams-game\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Twins are slated to take on the Phillies for the Field of Dreams Game<\/a> in Dyersville, Iowa, on Thursday, Aug. 13.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6c\">Earlier this week, MLB revealed the uniforms for the game inspired by the legendary Field of Dreams movie.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Phillies.
