Prep and Contagious Abreast Former Notes

Sometimes composition a blog feels a picayune same preparation. Specially when the issue of the designation is so arduous to sentry sometimes. I've already failed to retire the Chicago and Detroit serial grant, and since it's too previous to get any recognition for those, I may likewise advance.

Ilk the Twins pitchers.

I spirit ilk my grades are slithering. I'd punter try to get approximately redundant mention. Old.

I was exit to spell almost Flatness Capps and faith, but since he pulled off a economize on Monday, I don't deprivation to bewitch anything. Also, it would credibly suffer been a C+ feat on my office anyhow. (For what it's deserving, I actually do need to be able-bodied to reliance Matted Capps, but he calm has a slipway to go ahead I get thither. But I'm nerve-racking. I acknowledge he is too.)

The Twins have recalled pitcher Jeff Manship from Rochester. He will be assigned to the bullpen to take the place of Francisco Liriano, who is moving back to the starting rotation.

The Twins designated Jason Marquess for assigning. They tested to trade him, but couldn't, so they put him on waivers. He cleared waivers, and both the team and Marquis declined a minors assignment, so he is now a freewheeler.

As much as I cringed whenever he pitched, I do wish him the best. That story about his daughter's bicycle accident tugged at my heart, and I image he still has a bajillion dollars left in hospital bills to pay.

So, anyways, dismal. I'll try to do meliorate following clip. Scarce care the Twins pitchers.

To replace Marquis on the roster, the Twins purchased the contract of Eden Prairie, MN native Cole De Vries. I don't know overmuch about him; he wasn't even a spring training invitee (didn't the Twins invite like Clxx four pitchers to spring training? And De Vries wasn't one of them?

And they mentally checked off all the other ones to irritate him? Wow). He already made one start, and he did so-so. Call it newbie nerves.

It'll be interesting to see how he does ahead of Eden Prairie, Minnesota, and everybody.

I think, it is summertime now, and flush though baseball is the quintessential summertime shoal theme, it's besides grueling to center year when you're reverie of otc summertime things. Often same the Twins pitchers.

To make room for Manship, the Twins have designated OF Erik Komatsu for assignment. He was acquired off waivers from St. Louis, who selected him in the Rule Five draft from Washington.

He now is exposed to waivers again; if he clears them, he must either be offered back to the Nationals or, if the Twins want to keep him Rochester, a trade must be worked out.
