June 7, 201412 yr The Twins have apparently signed him. New DH or sign that Arcia's injury is significant? http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2014/06/kendrys-morales-twins-agree-to-terms.html
June 7, 201412 yr Didn't he have draft pick compensation attached until today? Assume the draft is over (or close enough to over so it no longer attaches).
June 7, 201412 yr This took me by COMPLETE surprise! This means that the Twins have officially put a fork in Kubel, that's all I know.

June 7, 201412 yr My guess? Kubel is gone; and maybe Parms, too? Kubel's done. Maybe he can stay around as a 'veteran presence' consultant. I know Gardy values that.
June 7, 201412 yr With Arcia, Hammer and Morales, the corners are covered and so is DH. The only thing that scares me is will this mean that the Twins hold on to all their veterans all season?
June 7, 201412 yr With Arcia, Hammer and Morales, the corners are covered and so is DH. The only thing that scares me is will this mean that the Twins hold on to all their veterans all season?Well, Hammer and Correia were the only likely veterans to be traded; and I'm not sure either would have fetched much value. That Willingham doesn't have a viable replacement doesn't bode well for him being traded. As for Morales, I'm really curious about the terms; the contract may extend past this year.
June 7, 201412 yr Is this real life? Good to see the Twins spending some money when we need another bat.
June 7, 201412 yr Morales to #Twins confirmed. One-year deal. Dollars less than Drew but "in ballpark," source says. First reported: @JonHeymanCBS On a 1-year deal wouldn't that mean somewhere around $8 million?
June 7, 201412 yr Bizarre move. It means less ABs for Pinto, which is a negative.You did see that Danny Santana is DHing today?
June 7, 201412 yr Rhett Bollinger @RhettBollinger 33s The contract for Kendrys Morales is one-year and prorated $12 million.
June 7, 201412 yr No apology necessary for Pelfrey. It should have worked out much better than it did. I am more annoyed at the moment that they signed Correia to a two year deal. Morales looks like a huge upgrade over what Kubel has done for us. Only thing is Vargas doesn't look too far away from which we expect about the same thing. Morales would need a little time to get ready. Would he be blocking Vargas if it is more than a 1 year contract? Or are we trading Mauer?

June 7, 201412 yr Hello Morales, May, Fuld. Goodbye Kubel, Correia, Hicks.Hello Wildcard Now if they can find a reliever to replace Burton. Edited June 7, 201412 yr by Marta Shearing
June 7, 201412 yr Full time DH. One year contract. Better against right handed pitching over his career. In theory, he takes always at bats from Pinto. However, it really is Gardenhire who has been taking away at bats. There is no reason Pinto couldn't DH against lefties with Morales or Mauer on the bench.
June 7, 201412 yr Wow. Well done, Ryan/Antony. Looks like they're in it to win it this season. Which makes the Kevin Correia situation all the more baffling.
June 7, 201412 yr Rhett Bollinger @RhettBollinger · 6s To avoid confusion, it's the prorated amount of $12 million per an MLB source. So roughly $7.6 million.
