Trevor Larnach's potential trade from the Minnesota Twins to the Houston Astros fell through just before the deadline. Initially, a deal involving Larnach for reliever Bryan Abreu was agreed upon but blocked by Astros owner Jim Crane. The teams re-engaged in discussions hours before the deadline but could not reach an agreement. Larnach, who has a.373 on-base percentage, remains with the Twins due to Houston's reluctance to part with major league players, and the trade deadline passed without a finalized deal.
