The Twins announced that they claimed right-hander Jeff Gray off of waivers from the Mariners. They also confirmed that they claimed left-hander Matt Maloney off of waivers from the Reds.
Gray, 29, spent the 2011 season with the Mariners and White Sox. He posted a 4.28 ERA with 4.3 K/9 and 3.9 BB/9 in 48 1/3 innings of relief.
Career K/9 of 5.1. Career BB/9 of 3.1. Sounds like a Minnesota Twin to me.
A contact pitcher on the Twins. I thought I’d never see the day.
looks like the twins are going all out this year….
Glad to see him go from the M’s, besides a dominant stretch he was just an average pitcher….
I second this!
Lol. Just lol.
Watched this guy pitch a lot. He’s got days where he gets hit, but when he’s on he’s 94mph, and has a slider with a nice bite. May be miscast as a reliever. Can’t have a bad inning there. But there’s upside here as a SP.
Twins need to get rid of their obsession with strike throwers and come into the 21 century. They need to begin to acquire POWER PITCHING.
