    <h4>Twins Morneau's price goes up</h4>

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>A little birdie says the Twins last winter could have signed Justin Morneau for nearly the same $33 million, four-year deal they gave teammate Joe Mauer. That's no longer the case. -- Pioneer Press</div></p>

    So Santana and Morneau? Keep raking it Justin, just not against the Yankees.</p>

    I wonder if they can pay them both....if they decide they cant, you gotta pay Santana and get what you can for Morneau

    Hmm, I'm conflicted.</p>

    I wouldn't mind if he priced himself into the Jays lineup but I'd hate to him on the Yanks or Sox. </p>

    The Yankees aren't signing him. Nor are the Red Sox.</p>

    The Twins will keep him and Santana...but Hunter? He's probably a goner.

    I'm inclined to agree w/ VF that Torii is history.

    Would be the smart move. Hunter is the oldest.</p>

    Morneau seems like the kind of guy who would be willing to stick it out with one team and see what happens. I hope he gets to a bigger market but staying with the Twins wouldn't be the worst thing.</p>

    But by signing Morneau and Santana, will the Twins handcuff themselves in the future?</p>
