The Twins have interest and their farm system is packed.
Maybe the Mets are smarter then we give them credit.

Twins have token interest. They arent going to give up much for a rental or someone they dont have the money to re-sign. They are more in the hunt for relievers or lower mid level depth starters. They wont give up 3-4 top prospects for a pitcher like Thor they know they cant afford. Unless they have changed philosophies.
And its the Mets, they havent heard earned the reputation for being able to outsmart other clubs.
