TRANSACTIONS With the affiliates off on Monday, there were multiple transactions to catch up with on Tuesday: RHP Louie Varland was recalled by the Minnesota Twins to pitch out of their bullpen. In a corresponding move, RHP Cole Sands was sent back to the Saints. UT Michael Helman was assigned to.
TRANSACTIONS The St. Paul Saints placed RHP Austin Schulfer on the 7-day injured list with a right hip impingement. In his place, they assigned RHP Francis Peguero from double-A. Down in Fort Myers, three pitchers the Twins drafted this year made the move from the FCL Twins to the Mighty Mussels..
The Saints game was shortened by rain, but the Wind Surge played a little extra to make up for it. The Kernels did what the Kernels have done all season. With apologies to LL Cool J, the best word for it is a "comeback." And, the Mighty Mussels' pitchers walked 15 batters in nine innings and stil.
