A day after falling to 3-6 since the all-star game, and six back in the American League wild card race, the Twins sent starter Chris Paddack to Detroit for prospect Enrique Jimenez, a major league source told the Pioneer Press.

The Twins also sent the Tigers right-hander Randy Dobnak, who has been a fixture at Class AAA St. Paul since recovering from a hand injury that derailed his major league career.

Jimenez, 19, is a Venezuelan catcher who has hit .255 with 10 home runs and 68 RBIs in the Puerto Rico summer league and Tigers rookie ball.

Paddack, 29, pitched in just 24 games in three seasons after being acquired from San Diego in 2021. He had a second Tommy John surgery in 2022, and this season has made 21 starts, going 3-9 with a 4.95 earned-run average.

He was one of six Twins playing on an expiring contract this season.

The major league trade deadline is 5 p.m. CDT on Thursday.
