August 22, 201214 yr Why would they shut down Diamond? Recomended max innings? Is this in the field manual? Doesn't he need to get used to pitching a 6 month season? What about next year? Will holding him back this september help him next september or beyond if needed? Dhokay! Wouldn't the same be true for all their pitchers who have been starting throughout the season like Hendricks? I'm sure the Twins probably have discussed the IP with Diamond but I think it's silly. It's not like they have a track record of healthy pitchers. It's a lost season and Diamond has never thrown this many innings in a season. At this point, why push the guy? The team badly needs him for 2013 and he's the only solid point in a rotation in chaos.
