Boof Bonser (although it might be Skeet Ulrich) was finally sent to the bullpen in favor of Scott Baker. Ouch. The only time you should be replaced by Scott Baker in anything is when the director of the commercial comes up to you and says "Buddy, you just aren't young enough to look like an eleven year old enjoying his Micro Machines anymore".As for what Bonser's role will be in relief, Gardenhire said that it will depend on where the pitcher is needed in the upcoming days.
"We'll use him however we can," Gardenhire said. "I'm not afraid to put him anywhere out there."
Really? Because I'm afraid to put Boof on the hill in any situation where there is a batter waiting to strike the ball.
In other news, apparently Nick Punto is still alive and he wants back on the team. This is welcoming news as the Twins need that jolt in the lineup, the guy who will dive when it's unnecessary, not work the pitcher, and pop up to the catcher when runners are in scoring position. You thought the Twins were good now? You just wait!
