Here’s what people were saying about the deal:
Dan Hayes: “#MNTwins are acquiring RHP Woo-Suk Go from Detroit. He has an assignment clause in his contract and must be added to the Twins’ MLB roster. Will join the team on Tuesday. Had 32 Ks in 27 2/3 IP at Triple-A Toledo.”
@tigersMLreport: “Suk Go has been one of Toledo’s most consistent relievers. Big blow to their bullpen.”
@rogcastbaseball: “Woo Suk Go figured out something in the last month and the Twins may benefit, they love Toledo regulars.”

@EatEmUpPod: “Go had a 2.60 ERA and 0.98 WHIP in 27.2IP at Toledo while giving up zero home runs. A head scratcher that this kid didn’t get a shot with the current state of the Tigers’ bullpen. And they trade him to a divisional opponent above them in the standings?”
Chris McCosky: “He exercised an upward mobility clause. Tigers had to either move him to a team who showed interest (Twins) or put him on the 40-man.”
