Laying It On The Line

I think he needs to change more than his hair color to make himself a viable option at 2nd for any team.

“That platinum blonde in the lobby of the Hyatt Grand Champions Resort was none other than free-agent second baseman Bret Boone, whose new hair color is emblematic of his desire to open another chapter in his career.”

The article goes on to say how he has been in an extensive conditioning program and hopes to extend his career a little longer. I’m just not sure if there’s any life left in this pony.

This same article talks about how the Yankees may try to lure Rafael Furcal in to play center field. I really hope Tery Ryan is on the phone trying to get Hunter to New York.

Not sure who the Twins should get in return, but $10 million dollars for Hunter is just too much. Lew Ford can replace him for a lot less money. Also, the money saved could be used to get a decent hitter in here.

Speaking of a hitter, I wonder if there’s any way of enticing Larry Walker into coming to Minny to tutor a future Canadian slugger. Morneau would benefit greatly learning from someone such as him. BTW, did you know that Walker actually spent 39 starts at first base back in 1991?

Well, that’s it for today. There’s not a lot of news yet. However, the offseason deals are right around the corner. Let’s hope the Twins pull off some surprises.
