f the Minnesota Twins want to lock up Joe Mauer to a contract extension, they're going to have to do it before the 2010 season begins. Mauer plans on ending contract negotiations if a deal isn't struck by the end of spring training, a source close to the American League Most Valuable Player told Yahoo! Sports on Monday. Mauer would play out the season, then enter free agency primed to land perhaps the second-biggest bonanza in baseball history.

I smell a trade

[26 to 6]

Mauer denied such a report and said he had no idea where it came from. No deadline. Definitely no trade...come on now.

I smell wishful thinking.

I completely agree with 26 to 6.

 

The apocalypse is coming.

Ahhh, one can dream, no?

 

Mauer behind the plate, Martinez at first but backing up Mauer, Youk at third and backing up Martinez at first, and Lowell or Ortiz into the woodchipper.
