MLB Winter Meetings

Winter meetings start today and final arbitration deals come off the table tonight at midnight.

SO, we'll soon find out if the Twins can keep Carl Pavano or if they can get a 3B that can hit better than Nick Punto (I am available, Bill Smith).

I just heard on Baseball Tonight's Hot Stove Special that Beltre was NOT being pursued by the Twins (thankfully) but Pedro Feliz WAS.

We'll have to see what happens in the next few days of these meetings. I really hope the Twins come out of there with some sort of veteran starting pitcher. Whether Pavano accepts arbitration or they sign someone like Washburn, I can live with that.

Also I Eric Milton is a free agent. Think about it Twins (not really), but don't forget that he had 41 wins for the Twins in the three years from 2000-02. Just sayin'.
