Apparently there are no relief pitchers available anywhere. Not in Rochester, not in New Britain, not in Ft. Myers, Beloit, Elizabethton, or anywhere else. Because, if there were, Gardy wouldn't be going to the well named Hughes-Burnett-Hoey over and over and over. The Twins are getting the same results time after time with that crew and it is amazing that they can keep coughing it up on such a regular basis. I never thought I would miss Crain, Guerrier, Rausch, and Neshek, all at the same time. Frustration is running at an all-time high with this Twins fan.
There is a way for the Twins to win with this current bullpen, however, I have figured out the answer! Here's the deal: no going to the bullpen. Twins starting pitchers can't come out of the game unless they are pulled out by the team doctor. Their arms need to be falling off. Maybe that means that Kyle Gibson needs to be called up to make a six-man rotation, since the pitchers will be throwing 160+ pitches. No more wasting pitches, no more senseless walks and best of all - no more bullpen meltdowns.
It's not too late!
