Twins Trade Vidal Brujan to Mets
The Minnesota Twins announced they have traded infielder Vidal Brujan to the New York Mets in exchange for cash considerations. Minnesota designated Bruján for assignment on Tuesday after acquiring Tristan Gray in a trade with the Boston Red Sox. The Mets have not yet made a corresponding roster move. Across five MLB seasons, the switch-hitting Bruján has slashed .199/.267/.276 with five home runs and 16 stolen bases in 645 plate appearances. Optimistically, Bruján has recently shown modest gains in power without sacrificing his low strikeout rate, but he has still been unable to find a long-term home. The 27-year-old Dominican Republic native was once a highly regarded prospect in the Tampa Bay Rays organization but has never been able to secure consistent playing time or production at the major league level. Bruján is out of minor-league options, meaning he would need to remain on the active roster to stay with the Mets. If he does stick around, he would likely serve as infield depth following the Mets' decision to trade Luisangel Acuna for Luis Robert earlier this week. For now, fantasy managers can safely leave Bruján off their radar.
