– After the Twins added three relievers and a starting pitcher ahead of the trade deadline, owner Tom Pohlad wanted to meet players and staff members at Kauffman Stadium on Tuesday. "We'll get a plan together this week and figure out what's going to be best for the team going forward." The Twins' deadline deals were focused on shoring up weaknesses. We did that in a small way at the trade deadline. Pohlad said MLB's labor uncertainty had no effect on the Twins' trade deadline plans.
