If this were Burton getting hit by a batted ball, you could have been right. With Fien pitching well so far this season, his actual physical status Tuesday will decide that, IMO.
Bremer and Morris expressing uncertainty which lefthander will be called upon to take as much time as he wants to warm up in the wake of Fien getting drilled.
Word is that Kenny Wilson has been claimed on waivers by the Blue Jays. Re-claimed, I should say.
This ends the updates in this corner - until such day as the Blue Jays DFA him again. Good luck to you Kenneth. My bit of researching info on you leads me to believe you're a quality individual.
Unfortunately that's my impression of him in general. Which made it ridiculous to bring him in as a reliever with men on base, but even when starting his day (in relief or as a starter) it takes him too long to find some command. He always ends his stint leaving you with the feeling you should give him another chance; and then next time it's the same thing again.
Twins announcers joking about Escobar's slide, but that one looked like the sort where an ankle problem could have occurred. Stepped away and missed Hicks's attempted steal, which apparently they also found risible.
Just tuned in, and my impression is only that he's more willing to throw strikes than I've seen in the past. / edit - and so, sure enough, he proceeds to walk Avila
