Orioles trade pitcher Dean Kremer to Twins ahead of deadline

The Baltimore Orioles have traded pitcher Dean Kremer to the Minnesota Twins three days before the MLB trade deadline. Kremer, 30, has spent his entire seven-year career in Baltimore and has struggled this season with a 1-4 record. The trade comes as both teams contend for an American League Wild Card spot, with the Twins currently at 55-55 and sitting behind the Cleveland Guardians for the final playoff position. This move follows the Twins' acquisition of A.J. Minter from the New York Mets the previous day. Further details about the trade are expected soon.
