    Twins Blackburn to the Pen

    Twins swap Blackburn for Duensing in rotation - MLB - Yahoo! Sports

    This is a good move. Duensing has been pitching well in relief, and has starter type stuff. Blackburn has not been good recently and maybe this demotion (if you call it that) will be good for him to relax and work on his stuff. Hopefully it benefits both guys, and the Twins can start winning some games again.

    Don't let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.

    Blackburn, Baker and Slowey need to be demote to AAA. A trade is needed for the roatation. Without a good addition to the rotation were done. You cant win with little pitching.

    Blacky needs to concentrate on keeping his ball down, even if that means he sacrifices a couple of MPH from the radar gun.
    If Duensing does what he did last September, he'll be just fine in the rotation.

    Liriano look good today! Twins avoided the sweep with a 6-0 shutout.
