Sat, 26 May 2012 10:26:27 -0700 Minnesota Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said P Francisco Liriano is returning to the starting rotation and will start against the Oakland Athletics Wednesday, May 30. He will replace P Anthony Swarzak in the rotation, after he allowed six runs over 3 2/3 innings in a loss to the Detroit Tigers Friday, May 25. Liriano was 0-5 with a 9.45 ERA in six starts to open the season before he was demoted to the bullpen, where he allowed four earned runs over 7 1/3 innings during five relief appearances.
Thu, 10 May 2012 18:03:29 -0700 Minnesota Twins SP Francisco Liriano said he understands why he was moved to the bullpen and is frustrated with the start of his season. "It's been tough, to be honest," Liriano said. "Having the spring that I had and coming into the season then walking so many guys and getting behind in the count, it's kinda tough for me. It has been up and down but I gotta find a way to get back to pitching better."
Thu, 10 May 2012 09:16:05 -0700 Minnesota Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said the team eventually wants SP Francisco Liriano to move back to the starting rotation after he gains some confidence. "Maybe a couple innings here, a couple innings there, he blows some people away and gets some kind of mojo going," Gardenhire said. "Then we see if we can get him back in there. We need him as a starter. We told him that."
Wed, 09 May 2012 22:10:45 -0700 The Minnesota Twins have moved SP Francisco Liriano to the bullpen. SP P.J. Walters, recalled from Triple-A Rochester Wednesday, May 9, will move into the rotation Saturday, May 12, against the Toronto Blue Jays.
Wed, 02 May 2012 00:14:58 -0700 Minnesota Twins SP Francisco Liriano fell to 0-4 with an ERA of 9.97. He worked 5 1/3 innings, giving up four runs on seven hits and three walks, in a 4-0 loss to the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim on Tuesday, May 1.
Tue, 24 Apr 2012 15:30:50 -0700 Minnesota Twins SP Francisco Liriano has admitted to trying to "do too much" as one of the staff aces, and he plans to "clear my head" when he's skipped in the rotation this week. He will throw two bullpen sessions before his next scheduled appearance against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Tuesday, May 1.
Mon, 23 Apr 2012 17:29:38 -0700 Minnesota Twins SP Francisco Liriano, who will be skipped in his next start, will not move to the bullpen. He'll receive eight days of rest before his next start against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Tuesday, May 1.
Mon, 23 Apr 2012 15:38:52 -0700 Minnesota Twins SP Francisco Liriano will have his next start skipped, and he will instead throw several bullpen sessions.
Sun, 22 Apr 2012 22:32:56 -0700 Minnesota Twins SP Anthony Swarzak might return to the starting rotation if the team elects to remove SP Francisco Liriano from starting duties. Swarzak worked two scoreless innings of relief, allowing a hit with three strikeouts. A change of some sort will be made once SP Nick Blackburn (shoulder) comes back this week.
Sun, 22 Apr 2012 20:26:40 -0700 Minnesota Twins manager Ron Gardenhire indicated Sunday, April 22, that it doesn't appear that SP Francisco Liriano is pitching with a lot of confidence, and it appears the pitcher's spot in the rotation might be in some jeopardy. "We've said this over and over again, so we're going to step back to see what we need to do to try to get his confidence back and try to figure some things out with him," Gardenhire said. Liriano said he would be open to a move to the bullpen.
