Will Jim Thome Re-sign with Minnesota Twins?

Just about every Minnesota Twins fan has been paying close attention to whether Jim Thome will re-sign with the team or move along to another team. Fans are hoping and crossing their fingers that Jim Thome returns to the Minnesota Twins. Not a whole lot has been made about where he might possibly go, but it has worried most fans. The free agency period has upgraded some teams with Cliff Lee headed back to Philly, Zach Greinke to the Brewers, and Adam Dunn to the White Sox. The Minnesota Twins are hoping their upgrade may come in the form or re-signing their powerful designated hitter, Mr. Jim Thome.

Jason Repko and Pat Neshek Signed and Will Return

Utility outfielder Jason Repko has signed a 1 year tender for $600,000 and relief pitcher Pat Neshek has signed a 1 year contract worth $625,000. I like both of these signings since they are essentially cheap contracts. Repko provides solid defense, a great arm, and speed on the basepaths. Neshek obviously did not pitch for the team that much this year but he continues to improve from his surgery. Hey, I'd rather see the Minnesota native get back on track for the hometown team than another team. Plus, it's not a longterm or expensive contract. Also - Adam Dunn appears headed to the Chicago White Sox. He can hit absolute rockets.
