Twins catcher Joe Mauer is making arrangements to upgrade his offseason conditioning program this winter. After a very rough 2011 season, Mauer wants to enter 2012 spring training in the best shape possible. "The biggest thing is having a regular offseason," Mauer said. "This year has been pretty tough for me, probably the toughest season I've been through, physically. Last year wasn't easy either. I had that heel injury and things kind if trickled down from that. "It will be nice. Hopefully I'll have somewhat of a normal offseason. I've got things in place. I've learned a lot over the last couple of years. I think I have the right people and program in place to have a good offseason." Mauer's last offseason was abbreviated because of knee surgery in December.
