Minnesota Twins Decline Options for Josh Bell and Joe Ryan

• The Minnesota Twins declined a $10MM mutual option for designated hitter Josh Bell, making him a free agent.
• The Twins also declined a 2027 mutual option for right-handed pitcher Joe Ryan, though he remains under club control for next year.
• The decision to decline options comes after a disappointing 77-85 season under manager Derek Shelton.
• The team's spending last offseason was not significant, despite new owner Tom Pohlad's ambitious talk.
