Ladies & Gentlemen … WE GOT HIM!
Posted on February 1, 2010 by Purple_Pride
$220 million!!! That could buy like all of Denny Hecker's old dealerships!
With our ears on the ground listening for news coming via the footsteps of the pony express, your loyal writers at BFMV.com have heard from an inside source with the team that the Twins have an agreement to sign your hometown hero Joe Mauer (a.k.a. Baby Jesus) to a 10 year contract worth in the area of $220 million!
If our source ends up correct (our fingers are crossed) an announcement is expected today or tomorrow … you heard it here first folks. Happy day during this snow and we’re welcoming Spring Training with what hopes to be a newly signed Joe Mauer in the near future.
FYI – we’ll also have our ears open to be the first to report news of #4 coming back in 2010!!
FYI part II - I feel like Jay Glazer (if I’m right on this … If I end of being wrong, I’ll feel like Ed Werder, Adam Schefter, Chris Mortensen, Sid Hartman, Sal Paolantonio, etc …).

Ha … nice, you guys “scooped” Rosen and started the whole thing. Funny stuff how rumors get started and today’s media just bite. Let’s hope (my fingers are crossed too) that you’re right… Go Twins!
P.S. Good stuff on the Vikes … GO BRETT! (please come back)
