Article: Twins Taking A Close Look At Justin Masterson

[AlwaysinModeration]

Nice analysis, Parker. I wouldn't mind a Masterson signing. But my priority list for money spent on the Twins rotation this winter would look like this, with #1 way out in front:

 

1)Extend Hughes

2)Bring Liriano back

3)Sign Masterson

 

Assuming, as we all do, that hoping for a Twins Scherzer and Lester or signing is folly.

I just wanted to say thanks for a really informative and thought-provoking article. I feel like 80% of what I know about Masterson I just learned here -- and I thought I knew about him before. I really love the blend of scouting, mechanics, medical analysis, interviews, and statistics. Just great stuff from beginning to end. Thanks, and keep 'em coming!
