We'll see how the Twins needs and Astudillo's performance match up after he has been down in AAA for the required 10 games.


Can he pitch out of the bullpen?


I don't understand why so many ML teams struggle to find at least a couple BP pitchers who are reliable in getting three or four outs at three times in four chances? There are plenty of hard throwers at the minor league level but I guess both control of the fastball and having a second and third quality pitch that can fool ML batters is the issue.

We're 43-21. Time to put the complaining about the bullpen, or anything else for that matter, on hold.

No it isn't. You're very short sighted. What happens when this team makes the playoffs and is trying to win a series against a team that has hitting, starting pitching AND a bullpen? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm? Any answers for that, genius?

I want a WS title before I die. This team is a few key additions away from that type of team.

There have already been a few games this year that our bullpen absolutely blew.

Think about what our record would be with a good bullpen.

I get the feeling the Tigers are excited about him
I really really like that we took a look, and cut him loose.
We're better than that type of guy.

And Gordon's numbers are declining again in AAA. I think he is going to go the way of BJ Garbe and Matt Moses. Another Ryan era first round bust.

We should have traded him when his numbers at Rochester this spring were good.

Out of curiosity, what’s his velocity like?

@therrigatony

I'm at the game....96-98 consistently...I've seen 99 a couple times...nasty breaking ball at 83-86.
