The Minnesota Twins are considering trading pitcher Joe Ryan, with the Boston Red Sox among top contenders.

As the 2025 World Series nears its end, the Minnesota Twins are considering trading top pitcher Joe Ryan, with the Boston Red Sox emerging as a potential trade partner. The Red Sox, who pursued Ryan at the deadline, may make another push this offseason, seeking a proven starter with two years of team control. The Twins are reportedly seeking top prospects in return, though exact details remain unclear. While other teams like the Tigers, Guardians, and Cardinals are also in the mix, the Red Sox are viewed as a strong fit due to their prospect depth. Ryan’s 3.42 ERA and 194 strikeouts in 2025 make him a valuable asset, and a deal could help the Red Sox bolster their rotation ahead of the December MLB Draft.
