Twins Trade For Phil Nevin

By Tim Dierkes [August 31, 2006 at 10:27pm CST]

Nevin's had his ups and downs this year between the Rangers and Cubs, but he is slugging .456 in 355 ABs.  Twins' DHs have been a void this season so Nevin can only help.  Minnesota currently trails the White Sox by a half game for the AL wild card. 

Nevin's $10MM salary ranks second on his new club, though the Cubs are footing some of the bill in hopes of receiving a decent prospect.
