Smokin' Hot Stove: Twins and Orioles

Hot Stove time! The Minnesota Twins have traded shortsop J.J. Hardy and utility infielder Brendon Harris to the Baltimore Orioles for right-handed relievers James Hoey and Brett Jacobson.

This seems like a decent deal for all parties involved, except for female Twins fans who fell madly in lust with Hardy's sparkly baby blue eyes last season.

No Such Thing As Too Many Joes

It's a full-blown Joe-gasm.

I am more than delighted as a Twins fan to hear the news of my favorite club finally signing a decent full-time third baseman. No offense Bboys.
