SEATTLE - A month and a half into the 2011 season, Joe Mauer is getting a do-over on spring training, though when he will play major league baseball again remains unclear.
The Twins' catcher is scheduled to leave for Fort Myers, Fla., today, a positive development for a team desperate for good news. Minnesota went into Monday night's game against the Mariners reeling through its worst start since 1995.
Mauer is one of five players on the disabled list for a team that brought an eight-game losing streak and baseball's worst record (12-26) into Safeco Field.
