I like Baker over Pelfrey so I don’t understand why the Twins went in this direction.

On a short sample his era was down and he looked great……then he blew out his arm.

I hope he comes back strong…

The guy has great stuff but he never seemed comfortable in New York.

He also holds another met record for 3 complete games in a row. twins fans will take some hand licking for 4mil ….we Just need him to pitch past the 2nd inning!!!

Pelf never got any better, nor developed a credible secondary plus offering, after Omar Minaya promoted him prematurely from the Mets (formerly) barren farm system.

I’m surprised he got 4m coming off injury, since his only value is his ability to pitch a lot of mediocre innings.

It would be perfect if he lifted his leg during his windup, wouldn’t it?

He has the talent, but not sure he’s cut out for a market like NY where everything is over analyzed. As long as healthy I think he’ll have a good year

I feel the ball was dropped on this one by the Twinkies.

I wish him the best in Minnesota but I won’t miss seeing him on the mound.
