A trade for Perkins, that I would take...
Owl in a Koa Tree commented on huhguy's blog entry in Blog huhguy
MLBTraderumors had a note the other day that four teams, the Cardinals among them, have enquired about Perkins and have been rebuffed (see mlbtraderumors.com/2013/07/bowdens-latest-garza-rox-rios-morneau-perkins.html - 5th bullet point down). If the Twins could liberate Kolten Wong from the Cardinals for Perkins, straight up, that's the one to grab. Wong was an "untouchable" earlier this year. He's major league-ready, but he's stuck in Memphis - blocked by Matt Carpenter. Should the Cards decide that Carpenter is their guy, and with his batting line it's hard to say he's not, Wong may be on the block. I had a chance to see him many times while he was here, and I've never seen anyone better on the Rainbows or their opponents. He would finally be that 2nd baseman.
