Article: Tommy Milone Is Tommy Milone

[Linus]

Milone is valuable to the Twins.......as AAA starting depth (he has an option remaining).  I'm not being sarcastic about this - he's not a great pitcher at this point but is far better than some of the guys called up over the last 4 years to fill in (which always happens). 

 

I would not trade him either as his value as an insurance policy is greater than the available return.

 

I don't think he is a good bullpen fit, with the possible exception of a mop up guy and IMO he is more valuable stretched out and waiting in the wings in Rochester.

 

May gets the 5th spot and Pelf goes to the pen or is traded for someone who goes to the pen.

Agreed on all fronts.
