Jeff

Manship

Manship has posted a 3.08 ERA and 25/15 K/BB ratio over 38 innings for Rochester this season and holds a 5.63 mark in 29 games over the last three seasons with the Twins. He’ll work the middle innings.

Manship has posted a brutal 7.89 ERA and 1.66 WHIP across 21 2/3 innings this season for the Twins. He might be called back up when major league rosters expand at the beginning of September.

Manship allowed three earned runs in one inning of work in Wednesday afternoon’s loss to the White Sox. The 27-year-old right-hander has a brutal 10.97 ERA this season.

The results of an MRI on Pavano’s right shoulder are not yet known, but it sounds like, at the very least, the Twins will give him a couple weeks of rest. The veteran has been dealing with shoulder issues all season, and his velocity and results have suffered. Jeff Manship is likely to get the ball Wednesday in Pavano’s place.

He’s taking Francisco Liriano’s spot on the roster. Manship has posted an ugly 10.97 ERA and 1.97 WHIP over eight games with the Twins this season.

“I know I can pitch here,” Walters said. “I think I’ve shown I can pitch here, and it’s just a matter now of getting healthy and getting back out there and helping the team win some games.” The righty says this is the first start he’s ever missed, even dating back to his little league days. Jeff Manship is likely to take Walters’ spot in the rotation, though the Twins won’t need a fifth starter until June 23.

Manship, who turns 28 in January, posted a 7.89 ERA and 12/7 K/BB ratio over 21 2/3 innings with the Twins this season. He didn’t prove worthy of a 40-man roster spot.

Manship posted a brutal 7.89 ERA and 1.66 WHIP across 21 2/3 innings this season for the Twins. He’ll compete for a spot in the bullpen next spring.

Manship was limited to 12 games with the Twins last season, but posted a 2.91 ERA in 80-plus innings at the Triple-A level. The deal is expected to include an invite to spring training.

Blackburn left the team last week to attend to a family matter. Jeff Manship, who allowed two runs over six innings in his place in the rotation on Saturday, is expected to be sent back to the minor leagues.
