I was just wondering how much longer Berrios would have to remain in AAA (roughly, since I know super-2 isn't a set date) in order to likely not reach super 2. I can't quite remember how long he was up for, so I am guessing it would simply just be adding on that length that he was up for from now. It seems like teams are starting to call guys up in belief they are safe with the super-2. 

 

I am assuming the Twins would just keep him down long enough to make sure he doesn't reach that? Wasn't he only up for 2 or 3 weeks? Can someone weigh in on this with more clarity please?

I'd say it's better than 50% that he's already safely passed that date.

If so, there is no excuse for his next start to not be in a Twins uniform...after how he has pitched tonight and lately.

I'd assume the Twin's pay no attention to it. Whether that is good or not is debatable. Buxton will have 2 years of service time starting next year while contributing almost nothing after all.

Looks like Berrios got 21 days service time earlier this year (promoted April 26, optioned May 17).

 

Jameson Taillon was a notable promotion after the expected "super 2" date this year, and he was promoted on June 8, or 21 days ago.  (Taillon was later optioned back down for another 5 days, although of course Berrios probably wouldn't be promoted for another 4-5 days from today either.)

 

So I'd guess that super 2 status would be unlikely for Berrios at this point.  (Not that I really think the Twins care, or they probably wouldn't have promoted him on April 26th to begin with.)
