Rumor

[mark1]

Interesting. Although, I don't put much faith in what Fox Sports says.

"The D-backs may be working on a deal that would send CL Matt Mantei to the Twins for OF Jacque Jones, OF Mike Restovich or OF Mike Cuddyer"

If you change the word "may" to "are" then I may start to get excited. Sounds like FOX is throwing something out there and seeing if it sticks or not.

I don't pretend to know the Twins but it seems weird they would take on such a big salary since they seem so cost conscious. Although, I guess they did lose Guardado this offseason so they are probably in need of a closer. Still, the salary seems high for them.

Probably just wishful thinking but it would be nice if this was a last ditch effort by the D'Backs to dump some salary and make Maddux an offer before Spring!

Just read the same thing on Sportingnews.com!

I would love to have Jones here....he is truely streaky but he is better than Danny Bautista IMO.

Sportingnews.com and FoxSports.com are associated with each other so it's probably the same rumor thread.

I agree... Jones would be a great replacement to Danny... Cuddyer is an up and comer as well....
