Twins Projected Rotation

by mcrow on 01-29-2013 at 09:24 AM
It seems that once again the Twins have been at work picking up pitchers. It seems that their strategy this off-season is the shotgun method, throw volume at things and hope you hit something. So far the signings have been for veterans like Kevin Correia, Mike Pelfrey , and Rich Haren. Two of the three have very questionable health/durability issues and none of them could be considered more than a #3 or #4 starter on most MLB pitching staffs.

    I am hoping that Worley earns this honor. He seems to have the most upside of the likely candidates.

    Everyone knows that I'm incredibly high on Hendriks. Not that he can be a #1, but I think he can be equivalent to what Scott Baker was (which was a #3 with sometimes #2 abilities). He's got the same...

    There is no upside, if it's obvious that he's not healthy. That's a distinct possibility, maybe even a likely one considering the contract. But we don't know, so there's no real way to measure the...

    Harden should not even figure into any equation of Twins pitching. If he contributes to the Twins this year it is all bonus and all good. In regards to the risk medically with Pelfrey there is none....

    Option A: 31 teams foolishly choose not to risk four million (for a total of eight). Option B: There's legitimate concerns about Marcum's health. Look, Marcum could very well have a healthy...
