In the Washburn
Joe Christensen reports on a possible Twins deal with the Mariners.
John Hickey, of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, reported yesterday that the Twins and Mariners recently discussed a trade of OF Delmon Young for LHP Jarrod Washburn and C Jeff Clement.
If that's true -- and we haven't confirmed this - perhaps the Twins had plans to spin Clement off as part of another deal. The Twins have this Mauer guy at catcher, and one of their top prospects is catcher Wilson Ramos.
The Yankees have interest in Washburn, and could use a long-term option at catcher. Might the Twins have interest in Cano as well?

The Yankees had interest in Washburn earlier in the offseason. The key word there being had.
Young gets traded for Garza and then he's going to get dumped for Washburn - talk about losing your value
wouldn't it just make more sense for the Ms and Yanks to deal directly, without the Twins in the middle? washburn and clement for cano? Ms are trying to move Lopez off of 2B anyway.
