OAKLAND -- Paul Molitor never had to deal with the social media rumor mill during his Hall of Fame playing career. As the Twins manager? Molitor welcomes it and can't help but scan through it himself.
"It's kind of fun," Molitor said prior to Saturday's game against the A's. "I read it just because I'm kind of curious to what people are saying, even though I know a lot of it probably is never going to happen. It's just kind of more entertainment."
It may be more than that in Minnesota, as the team weighs its options with the non-waiver Trade Deadline quickly approaching at 4 p.
