Matt Mikulski News: Dealt to Twins

The Twins acquired Mikulski from the Astros on Thursday in exchange for shortstop Carlos Correa (illness) and cash, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

Mikulski has a 5.68 ERA, 1.82 WHIP and 17:10 K:BB in 12.2 innings as a reliever this year at High-A Asheville. He's already 26 years old and on his third organization, as he was briefly drafted by the Giants in 2021 before being released in March and then joining Houston on a minor-league deal in May. He amounts to a throw-in for Minnesota as the Twins dump the remainder of Correa's salary.
