    Not really sure what to think of this move. Humber showed that he has ability, but needs to be much more consistant. Morillo has a great arm, from what I've heard, but is very raw. Perhaps Anderson can work another miracle like he did with Reyes?

    Perhaps. Dick and Bert were talking last night about this, and they said he's got great stuff, but he's a starter. He needs to pitch. So the Twins are hoping he clears waivers and makes it to Rochester to get the work in that he needs.

    Good news for the Twins....Humber cleared waivers and is now part of AAA Rochester.
