7/30/25	Twins embarrassed 13-1 by Red Sox as trade rumors swirl. On Wednesday, the Minnesota Twins, the focal point of dozens of trade rumors, were obliterated by the Boston Red Sox, 13-1, in what can only be described as a lifeless effort. Zebby Matthews, fresh off a dominant start in his last outing, failed to miss bats as Boston roughed him up for five runs on eight hits before he was pulled with one out in the fifth inning. The Red Sox built an 8-1 lead before piling on with five runs in the ninth — and it was ugly. Griffin Jax, who could be traded before Thursday's 5 p.m. CT trade deadline.
