Alex Meyer Pulled

[stringer bell]

Meyer started the game and allowed a run in the first inning. He faced two batters in the second and was pulled (28 pitches). Does anyone know why?

RHP Alex Meyer wasn't even hitting 90 mph on the Rochester stadium radar gun, according to those on-site.

precaution.  He could not get loose.  Good move for everyone concerned.  I hope the Twins shut him down for the rest of the season.

Agree on all counts.

Absolutely, with his injury issues and the team past the point where calling him up would be good for him....it's time to wait until next year.
