Twins had the opportunity to take Eduardo Morlan, the minor league reliever they dealt in the Young-Garza swap, in the Rule 5 draft... they didn't and instead picked something called Jason Jones, who isn't bad but I doubt he has the upside of Morlan.
Twins also announced the signing of Punto to a 2-year, $8M deal, with a $5M option for 2011. Gardy says he is the starting shortstop. If they're set with that, they won't be moving Casilla to short, so all 2Bs are out of the question in a trade. The only way to improve this team now is at 3B, meaning one year of DeRosa or Beltre (good options, but not for long), or multiple years of Wigginton (decent option), Atkins (bad option, especially since we'd probably have to give up more for him than for Wigginton or DeRosa), or Kouzmanoff (horrible, horrible option).

Redirect, Again
From my last post here, nearly a year ago:
"I don't intend to abandon this site."
Oops.
I'm no longer writing for MVN, either, but baseball is starting back up and I might just give this stuff a shot again.
Home Run Porch will be moving, however, and will now be hosted by Wordpress.
The new address is http://homerunporch.wordpress.com/
On the off-chance that anybody still checks this site after 11 months of inactivity, update your bookmarks accordingly.
