Should The Twins Be Interested In Aki?


The Pirates just designated him for assignment and are willing to trade him. He has been pretty lousy year thus far, and really has nothing but doubles power, but posted a .290/.350/.390 last year and can play 2B and 3B. I know he is lefthanded and we are already thick with lefties, but has posted a pretty decent .289/.360/.391 over his career against southpaws. I think he would be a nice spot starter/bench player and could be a nice buy low pickup and could provide depth at two positions.
