Michael Rand started RandBall with hopes that he could keep lies from conquering the minds of the weak. So far, he's only succeeded in using the word "redacted" a lot. He welcomes suggestions, news tips, links of pure genius, and pictures of pets in Halloween costumes here, though he already knows he will regret that last part.

Orioles' master plan for an all-ex-Twins infield is almost complete
Posted by: Michael Rand under Twins fans Updated: November 28, 2012 - 1:25 PM
It has come to our attention that the Orioles acquired ex-Twins 3B from the Red Sox, per this tweet:
The Orioles have acquired INF Danny Valencia from the Red Sox in exchange for cash considerations. INF Joe Mahoney has been DFA.

So you know what that means, right? As pointed out to us by colleague (and soon-to-be Twins beat writer) Phil Miller, the Orioles could play an infield with three ex-Twins: Valencia at 3rd, J.J. Hardy at short and the recently signed Alexi Casilla at second. A trade for Justin Morneau must be inevitable.
(And don't forget: The O's have Lew Ford, too. What a roster! Their AL playoff appearance in 2012 is coming into full view).
