News: Liriano (arm) threw in the bullpen Wednesday for the first time since going on the disabled list, the Twins' official site reports.

Analysis: "His arm feels better than it did coming into spring training," manager Ron Gardenhire said. "That's a positive." There is still a chance Liriano pitches again in 2009, and Gardenhire said Wednesday that it could be in a relief role.

Wednesday, August 26, 2009

News: Liriano had a cortisone shot in his left elbow, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Analysis: This could be an indication that Liriano will try to pitch again this season after an MRI showed no structural damage in his elbow. He'll start playing catch in a few days and then throw a bullpen session. Still, the Twins say they are not counting on him to return to the rotation and we could easily see him being shut down for the season if the Twins fall out of the playoff race.
