I couldn't agree more. Someone in this thread said he never excelled at lower levels, but that is not true. He was an all star twice in the lower level minors. He also started the championship...

He has actually gotten six, not zero, but let's not let facts stand in the way of this plee for Manship.

You are correct. I...

Yeah, I much prefer Tucson to Phoenix.[/QUOTE]

Thank you very much for that website. So Manship's ERA's in AAA this year...

That. Manship was with the big league team several times. He got a chance to prove himself and he never did. Compare that with Slama, for example and compare their numbers in the minors and...

Here's a thought...why don't you look them up?[/QUOTE]

I looked on the Rochester website and they don't break out starter versus reliever stats. Do you know of a site that does?

P.S. I noticed...

I have always thought that Jeff Manship has great potential. He made some excellent starts back in late 2009. But then something happened. The Twins decided he was going to be their new Matt...

Manship is out of options for next year and I would have thought the Twins would want to give him a good chance as a starter. Manship has done a lot better as a starter than a reliever. Why? I'm...

So far Manship has not been called up to the Twins with the September Call-ups. If he doesn't get called up, I will be so darn disappointed.

Manship is out of options for next year and I would...

Manship looked pretty darn good. The three hits were not hit hard. The first hit was a blooper into shallow right field. The next two were just bad luck. Both batters barely caught the ball that...

I agree that they should give Manship a chance to start. He's been excellent as a starter, not very good as a reliever. Give him 5 or 6 starts in September and let's see what he can do.

Manship looked very good today. 3 innings pitched, 2 strike outs, 1 hit, no walks, no runs. Hope he stays up. I really think the Twins should give him a chance to start.

Seth, you are right, Manship is throwing it very well right now in AAA. It's not very often you see a pitcher get 4 strikeouts in one inning!

Pitched well in some spot starts a few years ago. Got a critical win at the end of the season to keep the Twins in the playoffs. Was hurt most of the year last year but still was part of the...

I think this will be good for Manship. I think he's going back to Rochester to be a starter. He'll be better as a starter and I fully expect him to be back with the big club in the future. He is a...

Manship looked great! I noticed his velocity is up to 94 mph and his curve is still awesome. One bloop hit off of him, no runs.

I've been watching the Red Wings games on MiLB TV. Most of the parks do not have radar guns up on the screen, so you have to rely on the announcers. However, they mentioned yesterday that his...

John, thanks for posting this. If you go earlier in his career Manship pitched one perfect game and four no-hitters in High School in San Antonio. I personally think Jeff will find a home with the...

Manship looked very sharp. 3 1/3 innings, zero hits, zero walks, 4 strike outs. His control was outstanding and that slider is amazing.

Manship relieved Baker with 2 outs in the third inning and looked good for 1 and 1/3 innings.

Good point about having options left, however, I'm betting that Gardy is going to put the best possible players on the field, with or without options. I think Manship is throwing exceptionally well...

It was a slider. I think Manship is really throwing the ball great!
