The Twins remain determined to upgrade at third base. They're still working on getting Adrian Beltre from Seattle and have spoken with the Rangers about Hank Blalock and the Indians about Casey Blake. With top Mets outfield prospect Fernando Martinez out with a leg injury, the Mets could ramp up their interest in Blake as well.

You can't have him. You have got to let this stinkin thinkin go, it will make you lose hair. I thought we had this cleared up yesterday or the day before. Liriano is maybe the best pitcher in baseball. If so, then why is he still in the minors.

Liriano is going to be called up, and either Blackburn or Perkins will go to the Pen and Bass will be sent off.

Or Liriano could hit the Pen but expect Perkins to since he throws lefty.

Liriano needs to be a starter. After tonight maybe the powers to be will finally realize that Liriano is better for the team than Hernandez.

I'm just sayin...
If your team doesn't think he can pitch in the majors...how much could he be worth?

I am just as amazed as you are. Have you checked his stats in the minors?

You want Blalock? Better offer something good, Twins.

If I was the Twins GM, I'd try hard to get Blake. Seems like a good team guy, versatile... I like him better than Blalock and Beltre, myself.

If Cuddyer gets healthy, why don't they move Cuddyer back to third?

you got the key word there IF... he has been having a ton of problems with his hands, they don't need any other problems at 3rd. even with Cuddyer playing there. i don't think his hand are good enough to play there.
