Shutting down the Crain-wreck

Jessie Crain was placed on the 15 day disabled list today with inflimation in his throwing shoulder. GM Bill Smith said that it was more precautionary than anything, but shutting him down for a week and then starting a program the week after is the best course of action.

In the meanwhile, the Twins recalled the 2009 version of the big sweat: Jose Mijares. Now this guy came into spring camp overweight, out of shape and in no condition to pitch in the big leagues. He has gone down to Rochester and done very well. He has gone like 7 appearances without giving up a run and seems to be locked in and trying to prove that last fall's callup was no fluke. Here's to hoping that the fat mexican isn't a mexican't and can get it done for the Twins coming up here.

Peace out.
