    Yeah, I expect to see that happen on more than one occasion. Liriano is still young and has his whole career ahead of him. I would hate to see him out there and watch his elbow pop.....again.

    Re: Fransisco Liriano

    You know, he was the top rated pitching spect a few years ago. Knowing he is one of the best young studs to come along in a long time, I still have high hopes for some of MLBs top rated pitching prospects now. If Homer Bailey or Johnny Cueto come even close to what Liriano has shown he can do, I will be a very happy Reds fan.

    I here Bailey has been a bust so far. I read somewhere that Bailey won't be on the mlb roster when the season starts. Is this true? Liriano should be back stronger than ever. Expect big things out of him.

    I hope he can return to form and be a good pitcher for the Twins this year.

    I still say regardless of what happens with Liriano, the Pierzynski for Nathan, Bonser, Liriano trade has to be one of the most lopsided ever.

    Re: Francisco Liriano

    The Twins have a history of making big deals like this. The Knoblauch for prospects trade turned out pretty well and the Viola for prospects one did also. I expect to look back on the Santana trade in a couple of years a bit more positively than I do now.
    Francisco Liriano may not be completely back this year, but watch out next season.

    Sounds like Liriano will be starting the year in the pen. This is from Yahoo sports. Gardy is a fool.

    The Twins just easing him back? This is probably a smart move. He is young and talented, it would sure be a waste if they push him too quickly.

    Re: Francisco Liriano

    Let him be sure everything is right before they put him back into the rotation. He doesn't have to pitch often, and will do a lot of work on his mechanics before he is put back into the rotation.
    I like this move, frankly.
