Championship.

What is your guess on the terms? I am hoping minor league contract since 40 man spots are getting scarce since the questionable rule 5 pick

I really hope this is a minor league signing as Duke really isn't worth much. Sure, he should improve after recovering from his injuries, but he's 35 and had a 5.29 FIP last season. It's a fine minor league signing but they shouldn't lock him into a roster spot.

Wow, the 40-man is becoming littered with recovering TJ guys and veteran question marks.  How exciting!  

We got him!!!

Bye bye Buddy B

Dukeroo - I always wanted a Twins jersey with Duke on the back. Had a great-uncle Duke who was awesome, and have a cat named Duke. I like the name Duke. 

 

If he can actually contribute, it will be gravy.

If true, so much for Darvish

Darvish? If he showed up at 1 Twins Way tomorrow ready to sign a contract I assure you they would cut deadwood on the roster immediately.

Merry Christmas, Twins Fans!

When Duke made his season debut last July, he was only ~9 months removed from TJ surgery. And he only pitched 18 innings, not sure his FIP is all that meaningful -- looks inflated because he gave up 3 HR and only got 12 K's in those 18 IP. But his hit and walk rates were pretty low, so he wasn't getting knocked around, it seems.

They needed to add a lefty. This is a low risk move.

It's a minor league signing

 

It's someone worth taking a chance on. 

 

I hope he works out. 

 

Still want a bigger bang but I'll take it.
