2.45

Mike Pelfrey had another good start for the Twins yesterday. The bullpen was outstanding. The eighth inning was a lot of fun to watch and both Plouffe and Willingham homered.

The final was 8-2 and the Twins took the series from the Tigers 2 games to 1.

Twins starters for the series gave up 5 earned runs in 18 1/3 innings for an ERA of 2.45.

Worley, Correia, and Pelfrey, have a combined ERA of 2.45? Yep. Let's enjoy this ride while it lasts.

Pelfrey had season ending Tommy John surgery May first of last year. Doing THIS well, this early, is amazing. The former first round pick of the Mets may turn out to be the starter the Twins thought they were getting.

Am I excited? I'm getting there. Much like the Twins, we have no real history for the top three starters in our rotation. The next few weeks will give us all a better "pitcher."

A special shout out to Tom the Twins Fan. The occassion? This is the second time in a week that he's been mentioned in this blog. What could be bigger than that?

Congrats Tom!!!!! You should never have to miss an afternoon game again.
