Just ten more rumor-mongering days until the trade
deadline. If the Twins truly scribbled a right-handed third
baseman at the top of Santa's list, it's nice to know he has some options beyond the overpriced Adrian Beltre. Let's see what we come up ...
There's no crying in baseball, and rather than
sit around and mope about having likely lost Jorge
