Juan Morillo & Justin Huber: Japan Bound

Joe C. confirms what we already knew about Morillo, but it wasn't official on Huber until now. The moves will be officially announced later today.

New uniforms are currently being unveiled in downtown Minneapolis. Are you there? Are you taking pictures? Post them here!

You can see the new uniforms at the Twins site.

…Somewhat disappointing.

Road jersey.

Alternate home jersey.

Compensation

What compensation do the Twins get for Morillo? Is it just $$?

That's it as far as I know.

And it won’t be much, but a little is better than nothing.

Too bad.......

Didn’t see Huber coming. Could have gotten another few bucks.

Of course, the diference between a minor league contract (even a major/minor split) is significantly less than a player usually makes when Japan-bound. Yes, they play slightly different over there, you have to live, eat and train over there…but, again…money talks!
