The Minnesota Twins' acquisition of pitcher Pablo Lopez in the offseason has proven to be a successful move. Lopez has been performing exceptionally well, earning him the status of a Twins legend in just the past week. This trade has worked out for both parties involved, as the Twins had to acquire Lopez for Luis Arraez. Despite being sad to see Arraez traded, the Twins recognized that Lopez was a necessity. In a game against the Houston Astros, Lopez delivered an outstanding performance, leading the Twins to a 5-0 lead in the sixth inning. This success has even prompted discussions about whether the Twins would be better off if the trade was reversed, considering that Arraez had a .400 batting average for half the season.
Pablo López has been so good this year that the Twins traded away a guy who hit .400 for half the season and there's just no argument they'd be better if the trade was reversed
