So if you're wondering why the #MNTwins designated Tyler Duffey for assignment and not Emilio Pagán, it's like this, per manager Rocco Baldelli: They believe Pagan's issues (5 losses, 7 blown saves and 9 HRs in 38 IP) are fixable, and Duffey's weren't. 1/
Baldelli: "I see a good path for EP [Pagan] going forward. We just have to see it on a more consistent level." #MNTwins 2/
Baldelli on Duffey, a popular #MNTwins starter and reliever who debuted in 2015: "That decision is a tough as it gets ... It's something you're not going to do unless you're sure it's the right thing for the team and the organization." 3/
BTW: Not sure I've seen this before, but the #MNTwins have so many players on the various ILs that there isn't a single infielder or outfielder left on the 40-man roster. Baldelli said Jose Miranda, hit on the left hand/wrist last night, seemed OK and might play tonight. 4/
Oh, and Jose Berrios (8-4, 4.96) starts for the @BlueJays against his old team tonight. Recently acquired Tyler Mahle makes his #MNTwins debut. end/
