And in yesterday's game, he started, pitched 4 innings, gave up 2 hits and no runs. What went wrong with his time with us? Granted, he looked awful during his short time with the  Twins, but Atlanta seems to have unlocked his potential.

Joey Wentz update: 7/25 in Texas

4.1 IP, 6 Ks but 4 H, 1 BB, and 4 runs (3 earned)

Zack Littell. The Reds made a second trade late Wednesday by acquiring starting pitcher Zack Littell from the Rays for left-hander Adam Serwinowski (the Reds' No. 10 prospect) and 28-year-old right-hander Brian Van Belle,

The Littell trade invovled the Rays sending Ben Rortvedt to the Dodgers, so it's another former Twin on the move.

Ryan Presley DFA'd by the Cubs.

Are we sure he’s still going to be a former Twin? When times are tough, play the nostalgia card

Philly Twins update from last night:

Kepler 0-2, dropping his average to .203

Bader pinch-hit for Kepler, getting a walk and scoring a run as the Phillies came from behind. Struck out in second at-bat.

Duran threw 4 pitches, all strikes, and got the save. Credited with the greatest entry spectacle in Philly history, per The Athletic.

"The Angels have released first baseman and outfielder LaMonte Wade Jr....Wade performed even worse in Anaheim than he had been in San Francisco, posting a brutal 38 wRC+ as his plate discipline left him. He struck out in 31.5% of his 73 plate appearances with the Angels and walked at just an 8.5% clip."

Yanks sign Kenta Mazda to MiLB contract. https://www.si.com/mlb/yankees-sign-kenta-maeda-to-minor-league-contract

 

If I understand DFA'd contract provisions correctly, who is on the hook for that $12,000,000? Yanks?

https://www.spotrac.com/mlb/player/_/id/18451/kenta-maeda

The Tigers owe Maeda virtually all of that money, since they released him. The Yankees only pay him the minimum while he is on their roster (or presumably the AAA minimum while he is down there).

Brock Stewart has given up a run in 2 out of his 3 appearances with the Dodgers. Including being credited with the loss yesterday. 

Still better than outman......

Agreed. Though I think there was going to be another prospect added to that deal from the Dodgers. Original report said Outman and more. Then we had the 2.5 hour delay before it was finalized. Which leads me to believe Stewart’s medical report is so bad, they took the other prospect off the trade.

Could be.

Another win for Joey Wentz starting for Atlanta yesterday. He pitched 5.1 innings, giving up 1 run and 4 hits, but also walking 3 batters.  Not lights out, but he's pitching much better for the Braves this past month. If memory serves, he was horrible during his brief stint with the Twins. Baseball is such a weird game.
