MICHAEL PELFREY RUMORS
Worley vs. Pelfrey: Whose problems are most concerning?
I have seen or heard two different media segments in which Twins starters Vance Worley and Mike Pelfrey were compared and fretted over. The Common Man on KFAN in the Twin Cities was trying to figure out which pitcher was the most worrisome. Bloguin’s Outside Corner wondered as to why either still has a job. Both came to the conclusion that Worley’s issues were most bothersome...
Twins' starter Pelfrey still being hard on self
MINNEAPOLIS Depending on who you asked, Twins right-hander Mike Pelfrey's start Friday was either pretty good or pretty disappointing.
The first opinion belongs to Pelfrey's manager, Ron Gardenhire. The latter is Pelfrey's take on his latest outing in Friday's 9-6 loss in extra innings to the visiting Baltimore Orioles. The loss can't be chalked up to Pelfrey...

Pelfrey, Twins look to keep improving in return home
Baltimore Orioles right-hander Jason Hammel still thinks he can improve.
His record outside Camden Yards can't be any better.
Hammel will try to match the MLB lead in victories and become just the third Oriole in 54 years to win his first six road starts Friday night, when he makes his first appearance against the Minnesota Twins at Target Field.
Hammel (5-1, 4.10 ERA) has...

Second Thoughts Game #28: Twins 4, Indians 2
Player of the Game: Mike Pelfrey (6 inn. 4 hits 1 ER 1 BB / 7 SO)
The Leadoff
As the old saying goes, all good things must come to an end.
Cleveland snapped their six-game winning streak Sunday afternoon as they fell to the Minnesota Twins, 4-2. The Tribe bats cooled off considerably as the team was blanked by a strong pitching performance from Twins starter Mike Pelfrey (3-3,...
Twins Sunday: Pelfrey doubles Ks in sixth start
Finally, it all clicked for Mike Pelfrey.
The Twins right-hander put together his best start since joining Minnesota this offseason, going six innings and allowing just one run in the Twins' 4-2 win Sunday against the Cleveland Indians.
In the process, Pelfrey struck out seven batters which equaled the number of strikeouts he had combined in his first five starts.
"He...

Justin Morneau drove in a run with a bases-loaded single in the sixth while Joe Mauer, who was in a 5-for-43 slump, added an RBI double in the seventh for his 1,300th career hit.

Pelfrey, Twins look to get back on track
The Cleveland Indians' winning streak began with Corey Kluber on the hill.
Now, he'll try to help extend it.
Kluber squares off against Mike Pelfrey as the Indians go for their first seven-game winning streak in two years in Sunday's series finale against the visiting Minnesota Twins.
After a slow start to the year, Cleveland (14-13) has started to hit its stride....

Mike Pelfrey and Standing Around
Let’s go ahead and get one thing clear up front: nobody thinks about pitcher pace, firstly. Firstly, one always thinks about pitcher performance, and then after that come the various watchability factors. What matters most is that a pitcher is good, and when a pitcher is consistently effective, nobody really cares how he gets it done, so long as he does. But pitcher pace lurks...
Pelfrey shows strength in Twins debut
MINNEAPOLIS Mike Pelfrey feels blessed.
The Twins right-hander feels blessed simply for the fact that he gets to play baseball for a living. He also considers himself blessed because of his rapid recovery from Tommy John surgery on his right elbow. He had the surgery on May 1 and it usually takes players a year to fully recover from the procedure.
But here Pelfrey was Thursday,...

Is This the End of Mike Pelfrey’s Tenure with the Mets?
As it is looking more and more like a certainty that Mike Pelfrey will undergo Tommy John surgery and miss the rest of the 2012 season, it is time to wonder if the start that Pelfrey made on April 21 was the last time that we will see him in a New York Mets uniform.
It seemed as if Pelfrey had figured things out through the early part of the year. He looked good in his first three...
