[USML Announce] Great Scott! Baker's In The Rotation

[Brad Jansen]

ITEM:
JUPITER, Fla. -- The Twins finalized their starting rotation on
Tuesday, with manager Ron Gardenhire deeming right-hander Scott Baker
the fifth starter while Kevin Slowey will start the season in the
bullpen.
The Twins are expected to begin the season with a rotation of
right-hander Carl Pavano, left-hander Francisco Liriano, right-hander
Nick Blackburn, left-hander Brian Duensing and Baker.
Pitching coach Rick Anderson notified Slowey on Monday, and said
Slowey was willing to embrace his new role as a relief pitcher

WINNER: Angries--they paid dearly ($20) for Scott Baker, who now
bookends their rotation with C.C. Sabathia.  With emergence of young
pitching studs Jeremy Hellickson, Bruce Chen, Brandon McCarthy and
Freddy Garcia, team's trendline is CLIMBING STEADILY.

LOSER: Brats flame out with $8 Slowey, but can call upon reservists
Hochevar and Mazzaro to fill void. Trendline remains CRITICAL BUT
STABLE.
