Danny Graves Update

Danny Graves
Danny Graves didn't pitch in
the majors last year after posting a 6.52 ERA in
2005 and a 5.79 ERA in 2006, so when the Twins
signed the 34-year-old former All-Star to a
minor-league deal he looked like Triple-A roster
filler. Instead, with a 3.24 ERA and 14-to-5
strikeout-to-walk ratio over 25 innings in the
minors he reportedly may soon be a bullpen option.
Lots of washed-up relievers have gotten chances in
the Twins' bullpen over the years, but expect him
to be more Jesse Orosco than Mike Jackson.
