Hurry up Thursday

Short workout. Short presser afterwards. The Twins have a charity golf tournament that starts in an hour, so everyone is bolting.
Not much news. Ramon Ortiz will report on Friday. I talked to Justin Morneau and Michael Cuddyer for tomorrow’s notebook. The Twins met with umpires to go over rules changes.
Watched Joe Mauer take b.p. Mauer’s stages of batting practice are more noticeable than anyone’s. If he hits a ground ball, it’s usually during the first turn through the cage, then there’s the line drive stage, then there’s the rocket-launcher stage. Quite impressive.
I figured I’d link to my story about Carlos Silva and open up the discussion. Where should we set the over/under on Silva’s wins this year? I’m going with 13. I think he’ll be a little better…
