My sources tell me

that this is a done deal for the Twins but that we have to wait until after the All-star game as it will be very inconvienent for Sanchez to go as a Pirate and not wear their hat but also not be able to wear a Twins hat as he plays on the NL team. He has offered to wear a John Deere hat but Bud Selig balked at the idea. It’ll be done next Wed.

My source is my nephew. He’s 8.

I wish I wish

I dont know why I get even a little excited when I hear of a player like this being moved. The Twins never are in play on a player like this….it makes far to much sense to upgrade the 2b position. Bill Smith is sitting on his hands more than likely.

I wonder...

how much this thought is playing a part in getting/not getting Sanchez or another 2B?

If we make a move to get Sanchez, doesn’t that mean we somehow made a mistake in resigning Punto in the offseason?
