Gold Glove former center fielder Michael A. Taylor (32) is moving to the team.
Local media such as ‘ESPN’ said on the 24th (Korean time) that the Kansas City Royals agreed to a trade for left-hander Evan Sisk (26) and right-hander Stephen Cruz (24) as a condition of sending Taylor to the Minnesota Twins.
Taylor played in 840 games over nine seasons in the major leagues, recording a batting average of 0.241, an on-base percentage of 0.296, and a slugging percentage of 0.381.
He is a player who is notable for his glove rather than his bat. He won the Gold Glove in 2021 and was also selected as a finalist for the American League center fielder category last season.

Minnesota added to its outfield roster by acquiring another proven outfielder in addition to Joey Gallo.

Sisk was selected by the St. Louis Cardinals in the 16th round of the 2018 draft and was traded by St. Louis to Minnesota in July 2021 in exchange for JA Happ. He posted a 1.57 earned run average in 50 Double-A and Triple-A appearances last season.
Cruz, a native of the Dominican Republic, posted a 5.14 ERA in 46 appearances and 56 innings in Double-A last season.
