UPDATE: Zumaya Signs With Twins. In the aftermath of the 'Great Yankee Friday The Thirteenth Haul', Ben Cherington might be getting serious. Reports indicate that
the Red Sox have renewed their interest in oft-injured fire-baller Joel Zumaya. It looks like the contest is between Boston and friendly trading partner San Diego for the services of the 27-year-old, who missed the entire 2011 season due to elbow surgery. Zumaya can be dominant with a near 100-MPH fastball, having given up 40 fewer hits than innings pitched over his career.
