Bullpen hole (Twinkie Town)

Wed, 09 Jul 2008 03:53:58 GMT

The Twins have done a great job of patching holes left by injuries. But one hole they have not patched was left by the Pat Neshek injury. Gardy refuses to leave his starters in long enough to bridge to Joe Nathan. And he refuses to bring Nathan in before the ninth inning. So on this team, the eighth inning set-up guy is a key role. Let's face it, the Twins don't have anybody who can do the...

Chris Cooley Collects Cards, Has A Bangin Wife (Sports Cards Uncensored)

Thu, 03 Jul 2008 18:45:00 GMT

I read Chris Cooley's blog because of his exploits with Clinton Portis and because he is the Pat Neshek of the football world. Today I found out that he gets the itch as well ... ...Not that kind. He wrote about it on his now infamous blog, and not suprisingly, he had no problem spending a lot of money busting some boxes. Granted, he has the money so it doesnt really fucking matter. Either way,...

Crain Shouldering the Load (Nick & Nick's Twins Blog)

Tue, 24 Jun 2008 05:00:00 GMT

The loss of Pat Neshek earlier this season provided a potentially crippling blow to a bullpen already ripe with concerning questions. You had Juan Rincon with his continually declining performance, Dennys Reyes with his Jekyll-and-Hyde act between 2006 and 2007, Matt Guerrier with his early-season control issues, and Jesse Crain coming off major shoulder surgery and looking a bit shaky early...

Pat Neshek Is Out For the Season (Foul Balls)

Sun, 11 May 2008 18:04:00 GMT

I was watching the Twins and White Sox last Thursday when Pat Neshek hurt his elbow. It came the way you never want to see a pitcher get hurt (save for maybe a line drive off their head): Just throwing a pitch. Neshek has always had one of the oddest deliveries I've ever seen from a pitcher, and it has the kind of spastic motions where I felt it was only a matter of time before something...

Odds And Ends: Neshek, Gallardo, Casanova, Henn, Haynes (MLB Trade Rumors)

Sat, 10 May 2008 15:06:30 GMT

Couple of injuries, couple of designations, and a waiver claim. Twins reliever Pat Neshek has an acute partial tear of the UCL. Yes, that's the Tommy John ligament. He won't throw for at least three months, so his season is essentially over. There's no word on whether he'll undergo surgery. I remember hearing over the winter that Neshek was having elbow problems. Not that we didn't pretty...

No More Neshek Shuffle (Babes Love Baseball)

Pat Neshek and the Minnesota Twins saw the bad news coming. The side-winding set-up man injured himself on a slider in the eighth Thursday against the Chicago White Sox , describing the feeling as a "tweak" in the joint. After an MRI on Friday revealed an acute partial tear of the ulnar collateral ligament in his elbow-- the same ligament repaired during Tommy John surgery -- he landed on the...

Sat, 10 May 2008 03:32:57 GMT

MINNEAPOLIS - The Twins have to be upset by news of Pat Neshek going on the 15-day disabled list with a partial tear of the ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow. A terrific set-up man in the past, Neshek was 0-1 with ba 4.73 ERA this season in 15 appearances. Glen Perkins will be activated tomorrow.

Wed, 23 Apr 2008 18:21:44 GMT

It's been a while since we checked in on Pat Neshek’s web site, and that's really a shame. Maybe he fell out of sight, out of mind with a slow start to this season (last night's seven-pitch inning not included). His recent review of the 2008 Topps Heritage baseball cards was enjoyable, but what really [...]

Time to worry about Neshek? (Twinkie Town)

Tue, 15 Apr 2008 19:10:46 GMT

A quick look at Pat Neshek over the past couple of years: 2006: 32 appearances, 2 blown saves 2007: 74 appearances, 3 blown saves 2008: 6 appearances, 2 blown saves Granted, this is a small sample size, but Neshek's already been bombed twice this year, and both times the Twins were ahead when he came in and behind when he came out. This just didn't happen that often in 2006 and 2007....
