Hunter On Board for '07

The Twins today exercised their $12 million option on Center Fielder Torii Hunter for the 2007 season. I've exhaustively this issue, so I won't go into it in detail again. Suffice it to say that this was the only move that made sense. There is a distinct possibility that the Twins will try to work out a multi-year deal with Hunter sometime during this off-season, and I'm not quite as comfortable with that. I'll have more to say on a potential multi-year deal later on in the off-season. For now, those of us who believe this is a good move can be pleased, and those who feel this is a waste of money can - well - I don't know - yell a lot, I guess.
