May 15, 2006
Carlos Silva has been moved temporarily to the bullpen to work out his problems, according to the AP. Silva is 2-6 with an 8.80 ERA in eight starts this year. "He's one of our starters," manager Ron Gardenhire said of Silva. "He's got to be one of our starters for us to be successful. He will go back in the rotation, as soon as he finds his confidence and starts getting his sinker going. That shouldn't take very long, we're hoping." Francisco Liriano will replace Silva in the Minnesota rotation.
May 4, 2006
After watching tape of his last outing, Carlos Silva noticed that he wasn't keeping his head in line with home plate, which was a reason why his sinker wasn't sinking on Saturday, when he gave up nine runs in 2 2/3 innings to the Tigers, according to the Star Tribune. Silva has thrown two bullpen sessions since Saturday and has fixed the problem. "He was hitting his spots like the old Silva, so he's excited and I'm excited," pitching coach Anderson said. "He had his old sink back. Now he has to take it on the field." Silva will start tonight against the Royals.
