The Kendrys Morales era in Minnesota is over. 

The Seattle Mariners officially announced the acquisition of Morales from the Minnesota Twins on Thursday afternoon. Stephen Pryor, a 25-year-old right-hander, is headed to the Twins in exchange. 

Morales signed with the Twins in early June, after playing last season with the Mariners. The 31-year-old first baseman took a while to get back into game speed with the Twins, hitting .234/.259/.325 in 39 games.
