The Minnesota Twins acquire Brian Fuentes from the Angels
The Twins have acquired 34-year old lefty reliever Brian Fuentes from the Angels for a player to be named later. Fuentes pitched in 39 games (0 starts) for the Angels this year and he was 4-1 with 23 saves, a 3.52 ERA and a 1.20 WHIP. He has now pitched in 542 games (0 starts) in 10 years in the majors and he is 22-33 with 186 saves, a 3.48 ERA and a 1.25 WHIP. This was a great move for the Twins as Fuentes will likely serve as a set-up man to Matt Capps and he’s death to lefty hitters because of his delivery.
