The Twins declined to pick up the $9.25 million option on Scott Baker's contract, but the right-hander says there is mutual interest in him returning to the Twins.

Scott Baker is scheduled to start the Twins' home opener against Albert Pujols and the Angels on April 9th, but a case of elbow tendinitis may prevent that from happening. Baker is scheduled to throw bullpen sessions Saturday and Monday, but there is a chance he doesn't join the Twins' rotation until the second week of the season.
