PLUS THREE FROM PATRICK
Other Twins returnees who found success:
Rick Aguilera: Traded to Boston on July 6, 1995, then re-signed that winter as a free agent. Tried to be a starter; went back to being an effective closer.
Roy Smalley: Left in a trade to the Yankees in the Twins' salary purge of 1982, came back in 1985 and was a valuable extra player on the 1987 champs.
Sal Butera: Left as a light-hitting backup catcher in 1983, returned as a trusted backup receiver with those '87 champs.
