The Minnesota Twins acquired right-handed reliever Justin Lawrence from the Pittsburgh Pirates for cash on Monday night, adding immediate bullpen depth for a busy late-season stretch.
The Panama-born Lawrence was a 12th-round pick by the Rockies in the 2015 amateur draft, and he appeared in 69 games for Colorado in 2023 with a 3.72 ERA and 11 saves.
Across 222 major league appearances, all in relief, Lawrence owns a career 5.05 ERA, highlighting his role as a bullpen option rather than a starter.
