Austin Martin is now all the Twins have to show for that one.

Neither of them ever achieved top five prospect level production at the major league level. They were both ranked that high in the Jays system. But given the Twins were never going to pay Berrios, the money saved (some spent elsewhere) and the two players received make this trade better than some we have seen.

If the game never resumes, this would be called after five complete. Twins Win! Right?

No. Not the rule anymore.

Correct, not a total bust of a trade but more of a Johan Santana return instead of Frank Viola.
