I think both teams did excellent, Rays have a lot of hitters who really struggle vs left-handed pitchers, and Joe Ryan is an underrated prospect, been following him for awhile now

Plus the Twins were not making the playoffs so giving Nelson Cruz a chance to win is a nice gesture. I agree the Twins got some really nice players in return though.
