Marlins-Twins trade: Minnesota sends Luis Arraez to Miami for Pablo Lopez

The Miami Marlins are sending SP Pablo Lopez to the Minnesota Twins in exchange for All-Star infielder Luis Arraez, per ESPN's Jeff Passan. At this time, it seems like it is a 1-for-1 deal as the Twins bolster their rotation while Miami strengthens its batting order.

Lopez was thrown around in trade rumors at last season's trade deadline, but the Marlins weren't able to find the right suitor. He pitched in 32 games last season and threw 180 innings. Lopez finished with an even 10-10 record and a 3.75 ERA with 174 strikeouts. He will turn 27 ahead of next season and will be playing in his sixth major league season. Lopez agreed to a $5.45 million arbitration deal and has one more year of arbitration left before becoming an unrestricted free agent ahead of the 2025 season.
