The Tigers acquiring Chris Paddack from the Twins in exchange for a prospect, sources tell The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal and Dan Hayes.
Paddack has a 4.95 ERA and a weak 17.6% strikeout rate this season, so he’s probably not moving the needle. Still, some extra pitching depth can’t hurt, and with any luck, they wouldn’t need him to start a postseason game. If Paddack goes, Travis Adams might become the Twins’ fifth starter, though he was just sent down earlier today.
