Slowey is working quickly, as the first two Pirates go down very quickly. As I was blogging last inning, the Twins have quite a few good young arms they are counting on. Nick Blackburn, the team's top prospect according to Baseball America, appears to have an excellent chance to start the season in the Twins rotation with Francisco Liriano not being ready to go.
Liriano pitched four strong innings a few days ago, but the Twins don't think his arm is ready to go a full major league game just yet. They are giving him time in the minors to get his arm back in shape as he continues to recover from Tommy John surgery.
Slowey clearly doesn't want me to write about the Twins pitching staff because he set down the side in order once again. Of course, that might have more to do with the Pirates bats.
Twins 1, Pirates
