HQ's minors annual says so.  Seattle Sports Insider with the kibitz.

Larry Stone has quotes from Eric Byrnes.  Byrnes is thinking in terms of a return to 2007, which is fun to think about, anyway.  He hit .286 with 38 doubles+triples, and 21 homers with 50 stolen bases.  He was 11th in MVP voting that year.

The M's are supposed to be interested in Rocco Baldelli, the right-handed Chris Snelling.
