September 1, 2014: Temporarily Home

I arrived in Minnesota yesterday and hung out with my high school best friend/Spookymilk Survivor frequent nonsub threat Leif Bierly. Today's the State Fair followed by the Twins the next night and an in-person CdL/WGOM thing the night after that.

Jose Berrios was just promoted to AAA Rochester to make an important start in their final desperate push for a playoff spot. Danny Santana was promoted to the majors after about a month at AAA. Kennys Vargas was promoted straight from AA. Berrios has always been considered the superior prospect. Why shouldn't he be a rotation candidate next spring for the Twins?
