Yes, I know 4/20 was on Monday but believe me, I am not high. There are several reasons why maybe -- just maybe -- he might be able to provide decent innings for the Twins as a starter. For example, he has shown in his first three outings that he can miss a few bats on occasion....3587Fri, 24 Apr 2015 06:04:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/top-10-longest-tenured-minnesota-twins-r3586/To make the this list, a player had to have been signed before 2008.

He needs to recover better from that mishap and, in general, you're not going to have much success when you give up four walks and eight hits with no strikeouts in an outing. But porous defense has been an ongoing theme for this club in the early weeks.
