	Who agrees with me that the Twins should pick Turnbow up? He has potential to become a good reliver again, and we would just have to send down Kokrery

	He's been terrible for 2 years now and I'm not sure what role he'd play with the Twins anyhow. Korecky is likely to be sent down when Slowey is taken of the DL. The dude could definitely throw some heat though.

	I follow the Twins and the Brewers (Twins fan for life but I live in WI so I only get Brewers games), and trust me, we do NOT want Derrick Turnbow. He's lost his All-Star form of 2006, and he's a clubhouse cancer. He pouted about his playing time in Milwaukee, so Ned Yost gave him some innings. Turnbow promptly skyrocketed his ERA to double digits. The guy doesn't have MLB stuff anymore, and I'm already happy with the Twins bullpen as it stands.

	Well, we can't do much worse than what we have now... Neshek at 4.26 and Rincon at 4.35... Bass, Crain and Gurreier are walking way too many batters for us to have a legit shot at holding on to first place.

	Actually the bulpen as been pretty good, it had a couple really bad games. Nesheks ERA is in the 4's because of pretty much one game. Bass has looked really well. Crain is still working back from injury Guerrier is going to be fine. Turnbow is not what we want, i would liek to see Perkins back up instead. Turnbow will just cry about playing time.

	I'm in the same boat as Robtangle and if the Twins picked him up, it would be a sad day for Twins fans... I have had the displeasure of watching him blow games for the Brewers two years running and can honestly say he would be a waste of roster space unless we're up by 9 runs and want to get Joe Nathan into a save situation.... Despite our early troubles with our bullpen, it is still one of the best bullpens in the majors and bringing in Turnblow would make absolutely no sense...

	Sorry man im gonna have to disagree i watched him pitch against the Cubs the other night and he got ROCKED even though he may have potential the Twins bullpen is already one of the strongest in the AL and remember the old saying if it aint broke dont fix it!!!

	I don't agree at all with picking Turnbow up or the comment about how bad the relief pitching is. I just read an article where the relief ERA is third in the AL @ 3.03 with the fewest walks 31. Granted they went through a rough stretch and we are used to seeing Neshek with an ERA under 2, but this group has been worked hard and they have responded great over the last 15 games. Turnblow hasn't been good since MLB started to bust on the drug users.

	as a White Sox fan I hope you guys pick him up, he is horrible. I dont see why you would want him, your pen seems very solid. All he would do is stinnk it up. Good luck.
