Deal Goes Down
The Rays-Twins finished the deal discussed earlier.
A front-office source told ESPN.com's Keith Law that Minnesota acquired outfielder Delmon Young in a six-player deal that sends right-hander Matt Garza to Tampa.
The Twins also are sending shortstop Jason Bartlett and minor league right-hander Eduardo Morlan to the Rays for shortstop Brendan Harris and outfield prospect Jason Pridie.
I assume the Twins believe Young can fill in for Hunter's power. Garza will make a nice right-handed complement to Kazmir.
The Rays are also about to sign Troy Percival for the bullpen.

I wonder if the Twins will still pursue Coco Crisp.
Are the Twins going to put Young in center to replace Hunter? I'm a Rays fan and I've watched Delmon play a few times. I always thought of him as a right fielder...
