Since we are getting close to the deadline, I am keeping track with the
various Twins trade rumors and activity to date. I will add
to this on a daily basis, when news appear. Hypothetical trades and
"good fits" are not in the list, only reports of actual interest by a
particular team for a particular player. Another thing not listed will
be negations by Twins' officials that they are not shopping anyone.
