Twins all-star center fielder Torii Hunter, who can become a free agent after the World Series, said Wednesday that he hasn't had any contract offers from Minnesota since the end of the season.

"I'm kind of disappointed, but what can you do?" Hunter said from his Texas home. "That's my home team; I want to be with my home team. But there are no talks, no progress at all. It's still the same. But there's still a lot of time left."

The Twins conducted organizational meetings last week in Florida.

"So they might be talking over some things, and maybe they'll come up with something later," Hunter said. "Maybe it's going to take them a week or two or three weeks."

Hunter, who is the class of the organization on the field, said he isn't surprised by the lack of action.

"Not at all," he said. "But I'm in a good position, and I'm happy. I'm kind of disappointed, but I'm happy. I can't explain it to people because everybody thinks it's about money. But it has nothing to do with money; I'm going to get paid no matter what. Right?"
