Brian Duensing Anybody?

[wolfmanalfredo]

Duensing gave up four runs (three earned) over 5 2/3 innings and improved his record to 5-0 with a 1.88 ERA in seven starts since joining the rotation full-time on Aug. 22(c/o mlb.com)

Has anyone been following his rookie campagin with the Twins at all? He made a couple relief appearances before getting thrown into the rotation. He's yet to lose as a starter, and has been pitching great for Minnesota.

With his help and our offense, the Red Hot Twins were able to get the win and the sweep of the ChiSox. Still keeping pace with the Tigers(who won tonight), the Twins 9th win in the last 10 games kept them secure 2 1/2 games back in the AL Central.

The 4 game series between the Twins and Tigers starting Monday looks like it may be the series that determines who makes it to the postseason.

Understatement of the week! :lol: It'll be huge. I only hope we won't have a huge letdown against KC. They really want to be the spoiler.

Yea for sure. I hope cleveland can avoid the sweep tomorrow. We're playing some of the best baseball we've played all year, and hopefully that translates into more wins over this last week or so

might be the series of the year...i'll be watching

 

[Greg Cleveland]

I got your Duensing right here.

And while we're talking about exciting young Twins...

Nice cards Greg. Here is my TwinsFest Duensing. Which makes me wonder, will TwinsFest still be in the dome or with the move to Target Field, will TwinsFest move?

[Greg Cleveland]

I'd think they'd have to continue to have it in the Dome. Late January means indoors, and they've got it set up so they know how to do it there. There's no reason to move it to the Convention Center or someplace else, unless it's all about money. There's nothing about 2010 Fest online yet, so we'll have to wait and see. All I know for sure is that the Cuddyer line is getting longer already!

I love Twins Fest...Did any of you guys get Reveres auto for free?

Just another Omaha kid doing big thangs in the MLBs.

When Slowey went down this season, I thought the Twins were done for, but Duensing has quietly done a very respectable job as a starter. I'm looking forward to watching Manship develop, as well.

It's nice to see the local team in the middle of the only playoff race in baseball - I only hope they can get to the playoffs so I can take time off from work for a game.

I would imagine Twinsfest will remain at the Dome for 2010, but am curious where it will be held afterwards. Maybe that global warming will finally kick in and they can host it at Target Field the following January.

Thankfully I got his auto on Friday night because his line was ridiculous on the weekend. Really like the look of this Tri Star card autographed.

Duensing has been a great fantasy producer this year & could be scooped up for relatively nothing! I picked him & another pitcher up for my fantasy baseball championship push & if you think Duensing has done something special after being converted from a reliever to a starter, you should check out a Royals starter who has recently been through the same transition with the same (actually better) results....Robinson Tejada anybody???

Over the past month he's started & has produced:

27ip, 3 Win's, 11BB, 30K's, & an astounding 0.67 ERA!!!! :shock:

Nice, Alex. I was too busy getting shut out in the Mauer/Morneau line Friday night to get Revere, and when I went on Saturday with my family, Revere's line was insane! We'll see how it all pans out next year. That's half the fun!

 

[UMich92]

Getting Revere on Friday night was nice considering there was no chance at the Mauer/Morneau line. It really seems that the time to get the bigger prospects has been Friday the last couple of years. It might be because the number of kids on the weekend grows and mom/dad get in the line for the free autos.
