The San Francisco Giants have liquidated another reliever, trading Sam Dyson to the Minnesota Twins, the team announced following the July 31 trade deadline.

San Francisco receives a trio of prospects in exchange: Outfielder Jaylin Davis and right-handers Prelander Berroa and Kai-Wei Teng are all headed to the Giants.

Dyson owns a 2.47 ERA and 2.74 FIP with two saves in 49 appearances this season. The 31-year-old has one more season of arbitration remaining before he can test free agency following the 2020 campaign.

Davis, 25, is hitting .331/.405/.708 in 41 games this year since earning a promotion to Triple-A.

The 19-year-old Berroa has made seven starts in rookie ball this year, posting a 4.55 ERA and 4.63 FIP with a 26.8 percent strikeout rate and 11.6 percent walk rate.

Teng, 20, has authored a 1.60 ERA and 2.91 FIP over 50 2/3 innings in his first Single-A season.
