  • As the Twins look for pitching help this offseason, they reportedly inquired about the Seattle Mariners All-Star, but he just costs too much money.

The Minnesota Twins reportedly expressed interest in trading for Seattle Mariners' pitcher Luis Castillo during the offseason, according to sources cited by Dan Hayes of The Athletic. Despite their interest, the Twins did not pursue Castillo aggressively, likely due to the high cost of prospects or players that Seattle would demand in return. Castillo, who has been a key part of the Mariners' rotation since being acquired from the Cincinnati Reds in 2022, had a solid season with a 3.34 ERA over 33 starts. The Twins, looking to bolster their pitching staff, considered Castillo as a potential addition but ultimately did not make a move, possibly due to budget constraints or strategic decisions regarding their farm system.
