Here's How the Twins Can Trade for Madison Bumgarner
By Sean Facey

The Minnesota Twins are playing out of their minds this year. They're 47-23 and are a whopping 10 games ahead of the Cleveland Indians in the AL Central.
That doesn't mean they should take their foot off the gas, though. If anything, they should put the petal to the metal and swing a trade for Madison Bumgarner to solidify an already strong rotation.

Minnesota has one of the deeper farm systems in baseball, so there's no doubt they could swing a trade for the four-time All-Star and pending free agent.
The Twins would realistically have to send the league's 55th overall prospect in Brusdar Graterol to San Francisco as the prospect headlining the package. Graterol sports a 1.89 ERA in Double-A this year and has the makings of a stud MLB pitcher.
The Giants are also lacking infield depth in the farm system, so Minnesota's fifth and 14th overall prospects Wander Javier and Jose Miranda would be enough to do the trick.

Minnesota would add a lefty arm with a stellar postseason track record to a strong rotation, and the Giants would replenish a farm system in desperate need of some fresh talent.
A trade of this magnitude would make the Twins serious World Series contenders come this fall.
