I am the product of growing up in NW Iowa with a fanatic twins follower for a father and a fanatic vikings follower for a mother. Despite my misleading tagname, I live in NYC and try to see the twins every chance I get (lived in DC for 3 years during law school).

Duensing Up; Henn Down

Tiny by dctwin on Comment 17 comments



I swear I'm not a twitter junkie (OK, maybe I am...), but this is from Kelly Thesier's twitter page (I think she tends to post news there before she writes the full articles):  

kellythesier#Twins to recall LHP Brian Duensing from AAA Rochester. To make room, they've outrighted LHP Sean Hean to Roch.

Thoughts? I think this has to make our bullpen better in the short term, but a veteran solution via trade would suuuure be nice right now.

Bobby Keppel

Tiny by dctwin on Comment 3 comments

It appears Bobby Keppel has been called up from AAA Rochester (reported via numerous newspapers, including the Star Tribune: http://www.startribune.com/sports/twins/48782142.html?elr=KArksi8cyaiUqCP:iUiD3aPc:_Yyc:aULPQL7PQLanchO7DiUr).  I am pretty unfamiliar with Keppel and/or what this means for the Twins current bullpen. Thoughts/concerns/complaints/elations? I'm sure we'll know soon enough what the impact is, but it's a slow Monday at work, so who wants to talk it out?
