I see I’m not alone in my tonight process. I’m thinking his ERA was too low for the Twins to be interested.

✔ 5+ ERA
✔ 5.2 strikeouts per nine
✔ Totally over the hill, and therefore cheap, but…
✔ Well-known name makes him sound sorta plausible
✔ Gaping hole in the rotation so big a drunk could accidentally stumble through IT and wind up with a job

WHY IS THIS MAN NOT ALREADY A TWIN???

If you keep his innings down he’ll be passable, if his innings go up so will his era.
