Before Torii Hunter announced that he would wait until season's end to negotiate a new contract, he had discussions with the Twins that quickly hit a roadblock. A person familiar with the discussions said Monday that the Twins made Hunter an offer late last month -- for three years and $45 million. Twins General Manager Terry Ryan declined to comment, but with Hunter less than a month from free agency, the sides appear far from an agreement. Hunter, 32, is believed to be seeking a five-year, $70 million deal, similar to the one J.D. Drew signed with Boston last winter.-- Star Tribune
