Twins cause confusion after scoreboard posts false trades

Twinkie Town / Twitter

The Minnesota Twins caused a bit of an uproar Thursday night after it appeared that they had posted several trades on their scoreboard.

The confusion, however, was quickly debunked as Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com pointed out that the scoreboard was actually referencing potential trade partners from an article published earlier that day.

Adding Carlos Beltran would have gone a long way in helping the Cleveland Indians outfield, and the team's Twitter account made sure to send a shoutout to the Twins.

Just hours later, the Twins would make an actual trade, shipping All-Star infielder Eduardo Nunez to the San Francisco Giants.
