After clearing Josh Donaldson's salary, the Twins are now talking to free agent shortstop Trevor Story. Read more at MLB Trade Rumors.
Whether Story ultimately lands in Minnesota, the Twins will apparently be involved in the bidding to an extent. Looking past the $94MM projected on their 2022 books, the Twins only have about $39.5MM in guarantees on the 2023 ledger. By the time 2024 rolls around, the Twins have less than $20MM in guaranteed money on the books. That said, there’d be little harm in getting him a further look in the Majors, and the depth afforded by having each of Urshela, Story, Polanco, Miranda and Luis Arraez would be enviable. To that end, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports that the Twins have been in touch with the representatives for free-agent shortstop Trevor Story. He ranks seventh in all of Major League Baseball, regardless of position, with 69 Defensive Runs Saved dating back to 2016.

Multiple teams have reportedly shown interest in shortstop Trevor Story on the free-agent market.
Also, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reported the Minnesota Twins had been in contact with Story as well. The Yankees seemingly need to make a splashy move to get out of the shadow of the Boston Red Sox and Tampa Bay Rays in the AL East, though, and signing Story could be that move. It's unclear if the Yankees are still in on Story after acquiring Kiner-Falefa since the slick-fielding utilityman may be New York's primary plan at shortstop. One official told Hayes the Twins had a "lot of irons" in the fire, so as to say they were checking in on multiple different players. Of the teams reportedly interested in Story, the Astros are arguably most intriguing, as they would conceivably be signing him to replace free-agent shortstop Carlos Correa, who was their starter since 2015. The two-time All-Star and two-time Silver Slugger Award winner has finished with at least 24 home runs and 72 RBI in each of the five non-shortened seasons he has played in.
