. -- The Atlanta Braves are facing the possibility of losing another pitcher for

a serious injury to his right elbow.MINNEAPOLIS -- After three consecutive years
of 90-plus losses, Minnesota Twins general manager Terry Ryan is hoping a rare
in-season, free-agent signing will keep his team in contention the rest of the
summer. Minnesota signed first baseman/designated hitter Kendrys Morales to a
one-year, prorated, $12 million contract on Sunday. The Cuban-born slugger, who
hit .277 with 23 homers and 80 RBIs in 156 games with the Seattle Mariners last
season, has been in Miami working out while waiting to sign. "Why not the
Twins?" Ryan asked during a press conference announcing the signing. "I read
there were probably a handful of clubs that were chasing Kendrys. We were ahead
of many of those clubs in the standings." The Twins have lost 291 games the last
three seasons, but are 29-31 this year, five games back in the AL Central and 2
1/2 back in the wild card standings. Morales, who turns 31 on June 20, had been
unsigned because teams were hesitant to surrender a compensatory first-round
pick to sign him. Since the Twins signed him after the MLB draft, they do not
have to give up a coveted pick. The prorated portion of Morales contract will
total slightly more than $7.4 million. "It just made sense," said Ryan, who is
back in the GM chair after stepping away during spring training to battle skin
cancer. For Morales, the deal gives him an opportunity to provide some power to
an inconsistent Twins offence in desperate need of a full-time designated
hitter. "It wasnt easy for a baseball player to watch baseball games when he
knows he can pllay," Morales said through an interpreter.dddddddddddd "But you
have to be mentally tough and be prepared so when this opportunity does come
around, youre ready to do what you gotta do." In 620 career games, Morales has
102 home runs and 345 RBIs. He also missed 1 1/2 years after breaking his leg
celebrating a game-ending home run on May 29, 2010, when he was with the Los
Angeles Angels. Since Morales is out of options and not injured, the Twins cant
send him to the minors to shake off the rust from missing the seasons first 60
games. Hell work out with the team and take the field when hes ready. "Its a day
to day thing, Ill be working out and talking to (manager Ron Gardenhire) and the
coaching staff," Morales said. "When Im ready, Ill be in there. We just want to
do it the right way." Morales greeted his new teammates in the clubhouse before
Sundays game against the Houston Astros and spent some time with Tony Oliva,
Minnesotas most famous Cuban-born player. Since the Twins arent known for making
splashy moves, especially during the season, players viewed the signing as a
signal from management that theyre serious about contending. "Its a good
signing. A lot of us are real excited right now," Joe Mauer said. "It tells you
how close this division is and us adding is definitely a great thing." To make
room on the 25-man roster, Minnesota released Jason Kubel, who appeared in 798
games over parts of eight seasons with the Twins. He was hitting .224 this year,
but just .158 since April. Cheap NFL
