FILE - In this Feb. 29, 2008 file photo, Jim Pohlad  meets with reporters Friday, Feb. 29, 2008, in Minneapolis.  Pohlad says he's staying out of contract negotiations with catcher Joe Mauer(notes).  Pohlad declined Monday, Feb. 8, 2010,  to discuss specifics or confirm the team is talking about a long-term extension for the American League MVP. Pohlad said the Twins simply want to have Mauer in uniform.

FILE - In this Sept. 18, 2009 file photo, Los Angeles Dodgers second baseman Orlando Hudson(notes) makes a diving attempt on a ball hit by San Francisco Giants' Travis Ishikawa(notes) during the third inning of their Major League Baseball game in Los Angeles. With a new ballpark set to open in April and a core of talented players in their prime, the Twins have shed their frugal ways. The latest addition came late Thursday, Feb. 4, 2010, when Minnesota agreed to a $5 million, one-year contract with second baseman Hudson. He joins a list of new faces that includes shortstop J.J. Hardy(notes) and slugger Jim Thome(notes). And the team is in negotiations with catcher Joe Mauer(notes) on what promises to be a franchise-record long-term extension.
