MLB: Twins Pick up OCab from A's

[3GenClone]

So Cabrerra plays short, does Punto move to second and replace Casilla or do they bench Punto?

Cabrera's 5th team in 5 years.

Latest rumors are that the Twins are currently kicking the tires of the A's Michael Wuertz and Padres Heath Bell. I would not be surprised to see that they get Wuertz

I wish that the Twins could have landed Wuertz, but supposedly the A's took him off the table unless the deal was slanted heavily towards the A's. Wuertz's slider is currently rated the toughest pitch to hit in all of MLB.

Wuertz would be a good pitcher to get in the bullpen. In short work, he can be good.

Someone mentioned this being Cabrera's 5th team in five years. I believe he has been with chi and oak the last two, and was with the angels for quite a while before this. So he hasn't really moved around a ton untill the last few months. I think it is a good get for the twins, as the middle infield was hitting about .200 this year.
