Brainy, too. That should really help his chances of signing somewhere.
Belisle to the DL with "sore knee." Matt, we need a roster spot and we have no more room for you. "Ow, my knee!" Got to love those cagey veterans.
I mean this with all sincerity: Matt Belisle must be one of the nicest guys in baseball. The Twins know he can't pitch, and they know they should release him, but they just don't want to because they like him.
They also wouldn't trade him, because other teams would eat him up and spit him out. No sir, he doesn't deserve that.
Welcome to the demeritocracy.
Well, FWIW, if Belisle is truly hurt, the Twins can't release him until he is healthy. The timing of the injury is just very suspicious. If he's been dealing with this, why did the Twins allow him to throw a season high in pitches yesterday? If he just came forward with it today, then you have to wonder just how hurt he really is. Fortunately, he can still be a great clubhouse guy while on the DL. I suspect this injury will keep him out till September when rosters expand.

He seems like a nice guy.

Royce Lewis (2017 No. 1 pick) homered off Casey Mize (2018 No. 1 pick) in Lewis' four-hit, two-homer game last night. Lewis was drafted out of high school and Mize was drafted as a junior from Auburn by the Tigers. They could be seeing a lot of each other in their careers.
