Currently stuck in an up-and-down long relief role, could he be a starting option with the recent injuries?

	Sonny Gray&#x2019;s Cutters
Pitchers prefer the cutter when looking to add to their profile, and Sonny Gray has fallen into line. Typically platoon-neutral, the cutter is broadly an excellent pitch for any pitcher to master, as it...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">14132</guid><pubDate>Sun, 30 Apr 2023 00:15:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Royals 3, Twins 2: Duran Command Derails Twins in 9th</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/royals-3-twins-2-duran-command-derails-twins-in-9th-r14135/</link><description>A rare bout of wildness from Jhoan Duran costs the Twins a game they led in the eighth as Royals steal game three from the Twins, ending their nine game losing streak at Target Field.

He&#x2019;s even contributing right now. But it&#x2019;s starting to feel like we&#x2019;re watching him get the dreaded, drawn-out Minnesota Goodbye.&#xA0;
