Despite concerns over the medical records of Twins prospect Brusdar Graterol, reports indicate that the mega deal involving Mookie Betts will still go through.
Source familiar with the three-way Boston/Los Angeles/Minnesota trade said the sides are “making progress,” and while a deal isn’t likely to be finalized any earlier than Friday, it’s still “more likely to happen than not.”
