Fort Myers (AP), Florida, USA - Sonny Gray took a few steps further than usual to get his first practice in pre-season training with his new team.
With the arrival of the right veteran, he learned that this was where he wanted to be. The newly-acquired starter first worked with the Minnesota Twins after passing a medical examination on Tuesday.
The Twins acquired Gray on Sunday in a deal with the Cincinnati Reds dissolving their salaries; Meanwhile, the Twins hinted that they would seek more change after consolidating Gray. Gray ended with a record of 7-9, 155 strikeouts and 4.19 effects during 135 1/3 innings in 2021.
“It looks like the Twins are looking for more cards.” Grey said. “That's the moment in my career, and the only thing I'm really worried about is winning. I want to win.”
Gray participated in the second of three swaps the Twins made between Saturday and Sunday. Minnesota sent gunner Mitch Gabor to the Texas Rangers in exchange for shortstop Isiah Kiner-Falefa. He was later transported to the New York Yankees with third baseman John Donaldson to acquire Dominican gunner Gary Sanchez and Colombian infielder Gio Urshella.
But the Twins didn't end there.
Derek Fayley, Chief Operating Officer, said the club has greater financial flexibility after the Yankees took over the remaining $50 million from Donaldson's contract, and said that Fayley hopes to use that money to meet his needs in spinning, bullpens, and shortstops.The Twins expressed interest in the Free Agent Trevor Story and are negotiating with Oakland Athletics.
“We hope to be in a better position not only on the squad side, but also in the flexibility we create for future plans and upcoming negotiations,” said Fayley. I added that.
Gray and his family were on their way to the airport to travel to Arizona for a Reds spring training Sunday when Nick Krall, general manager of Cincinnati, spoke to him and broke the news. Gray quickly realized that he now had to travel to Florida and return home for a reorganization.
The Twins wanted to settle down after Gray, who was twice elected to the All-Star Games, arrived with his family on Tuesday, but the pitcher wanted more activity.
Not only did he participate in photography days and health screenings, he also joined his teammates on site for a pitcher practice. He later signed autographs and posed to take pictures with his fans.
