Minnesota is pushing its starters back a day.
The Twins will call up Louie Varland to start the second of their three-game series against the Colorado Rockies on Tuesday at Target Field in Minneapolis, Twins manager Rocco Baldelli told reporters following Monday'sDiego Castillo will be optioned as a corresponding move, according to multiple reports.— Do-Hyoung Park Varland started the year with the big league club, but struggled through four starts before being sent down to Triple-A St. Paul.
The Twins optioned him on April 22 following the tough start, and he's been with the Triple-A Saints since then. Varland has made eight starts with the Saints, going 2-5 with a 5.31 ERA. He's given up 45 hits and 28 runs — 24 earned — while fanning 44 across 40 2/3 innings of work. Now he'll get an opportunity to get back on track in the big leagues with the Twins pushing their starters back a day. Pablo Lopez would have been scheduled to start on Tuesday, but his start will come in the series finale against the Rockies on Wednesday afternoon.
