Dustin Morse (from the Twins PR department) just tweeted that Terry Ryan and Scott Baker will have a press conference at Target Field at 4:00 today.
Can't be good, right?
Let the speculation begin, but as we hear what the situation is, we'll be sure to report it here so you can continue to discuss.

Um, no. Can't imagine they would throw a press conference just to announce that Baker's going to rest a little more and then rehab. Then again, did they have press conferences to announce other pitchers needed Tommy John, etc. in the past?!
He did get back from seeing Dr. Altcheck, so could be an update on that.
Interesting.............I don't recall us ever holding a press conference before like this? Can't be good!
Since Baker is going to be there, I don't think this is good news.
Contract extension...
I'm just kidding.
I am guess that it is bad news. It looks like Liam Hendriks will be staying up with the Twins for longer than expected
Cruising thru different websites, it appears there are a lot of speculation that he'll be needing Tommy John Surgery. The fact that they are holding a press conference would leave me to believe it would be something like this. Something major. :(
What else can possibly go wrong? Does this mean Duensing becomes a starter again?
Hendriks will take his spot, and Swarzak i'd imagine would fill Marquis till he is back with the team.
Ahh.... (explative deleted).
Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigggggggggg ggggggggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not.....going....to....be.....good.
what I don't want to hear during this press conference... "Rest and Rehab."
I don't know... do you really think they pick up his 9 million dollar option if he's getting tommy john?Quote:

Don't have a good feeling, obviously.

Out 6 months...get the feeling his Twins career is over.
Perhaps the press conference will tell us that Baker spent enough time in hospitals that he has discovered a cure for cancer.
....and he'll need TJ surgery.
