Review the Debuts: Twins Rookie Pitchers

[Battle ur tail off]

Honestly, I am kind of excited for all of these guys. 

Also, what is to say that some of these arms that are tabbed as starters now can't become effective relievers? If the Twins are able to employ what they wanted to do all along. Pay 1-2 starters and fill the rest with your pipeline, than I think it makes sense that guys like Varland, SWR, Winder, Ober, etc not be pigeonholed as absolute starting pitchers. Having 2-3 guys in your pen that can go multiple innings would be a huge help if in fact you plan to not use your starters much past the 2nd time through.

Had we used(or had available) some of these guys this year to piggyback guys like Bundy, Archer, etc. The rest of our bullpen wouldn't have been beaten up so bad and there would have been no need for guys like Pagan, Duffey, Joe Smith, Megill, etc. 

One way or the other, I am going to give these guys some credit that for the first time in awhile, it looks as if we have all kinds of useful arms in the top of our system that may be available to use wherever the brass sees fit.

No Enlow. No Balazovic. Glad Henriquez made it (and he is still young, folks). 

Glad we had room to give shots to Chi Chi, Aaron, Davis, Thornburg (what, no Peacock?), Hamilton as well as a couple of past subjects. All those minor league free agent pitchers that didn't pan out...especially for the Saints. Shame!
