‪#Twins‬ have two scouts watching ‪#BlueJays‬ prospect-laden Lansing affiliate. Liriano and Capps are fits for Toronto. @MLBONFOX

Not worthy of a thread. Teams scouting the minors is routine.

I hope we trade for Denard Span. I am probably the only person in Canada that has a Span player t-shirt. Got it for 2 bucks in Minneapolis.

Not for nothing, but Liriano did put up 15 Ks last night against the As. I know he's erratic as ****, but he's put it together this past month or so. If the price is right, I wouldn't mind a move for him, since I've always been a fan.

Seriously...a thread for THIS. Come on Mods, just make a Polo007 article thread. It doesn't even have to be stickied...if the news is relevant, it will be discussed. If it's the usual fluff, then it won't be.

I would take a chance on Liriano, pitching well of late. This is a typical AA move, please make it happen. We don't need Morneau. EE and Lind are playing well. We need to trade for pitching.

Liriano would be a nice additon, pitching well lately. Just curious to know what it would take to get him. Hope we would not have to trade any of our TOP prospects for him. I think he's a FA at the end of the year. Can anyone confirm?
