Twins prospect right-hander Alex Meyer struck out eight batters over six shutout innings for Triple-A Rochester on Wednesday, scattering five singles.
Meyer has been solid all year, and has pitched exactly six innings in each of his last five starts. Meyer missed time with a shoulder injury in 2013, and has thrown 101 1/3 innings in 2014, 22 more innings than he threw last year. The Twins will likely begin to decrease the frequency of his starts and place additional restrictions on his pitch counts in an attempt to keep him healthy long term.
Jul 24 - 9:27 AM
Twins right-handed pitching prospect needed 78 pitches to complete three shutout innings on Wednesday, allowing two singles, two walks, and one hit batsman while striking out four batters.
Meyer threw 48 of his 78 pitches for strikes (61.5 percent), so he was able to find the zone and was not hit especially hard. He has 67 2/3 innings pitched this season, which is nearly as many as the 70 he threw last year. The Twins are going to manage his innings to prevent an injury due to overuse.
Jun 19 - 11:19 AM
Twins right-handed pitching prospect Alex Meyer lasted only two innings for Triple-A Rochester on Friday, allowing five hits, two walks, and one hit batsman while allowing three runs.
Meyer only struck out one batter for the night and was given the quick hook. Meyer has the potential to be a solid No. 2/3 starter, but is prone to the occasional poor outing and only threw 70 innings in 2013, so the Twins may hold him back to build up his arm strength.
Jun 14 - 10:38 AM
Twins right-handed pitching prospect Alex Meyer struggled for Triple-A Rochester, allowing four runs through seven hits, one walk, and one hit batsman on Monday.
After two consecutive good outings, Meyer put up a clunker as the Super 2 deadline is coming close to being passed. With the recent promotions of Jonathan Singleton and Oscar Taveras, Meyer could get promoted soon. Even though Meyer struggled, it is good to see that he has kept his walks in check in 2014, which is a good harbinger.

Joe Mauer (oblique) is scheduled to begin taking batting practice on the field on Wednesday.
He'll hit in the cages on Monday before progressing to the field two days after that. Mauer has been swinging a bat for a week now and hasn't had any setbacks, so he's getting close. He'll presumably have to go out on a rehab assignment before being activated.

Ricky Nolasco
D.L.
Ricky Nolasco (elbow) is expected to throw 3-4 bullpen sessions before beginning a rehab assignment.
Nolasco will throw off a mound Sunday for the first time since being shut down with flexor pronator stiffness. He'll need 2-3 additional bullpen sessions after that before being cleared for game action, though it's not clear how many rehab starts he'll need. Nolasco should rejoin the Twins' rotation sometime in August if all goes well.

Kyle Gibson (back) has been cleared to start on Tuesday against the Royals after getting through a bullpen session Saturday with no issues.
Gibson missed an outing with lower back stiffness, but he's feeling fine now. The right-hander holds a 4.19 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 54/30 K/BB ratio over 107 1/3 innings this season for the Twins.

Mike Pelfrey
D.L.
Twins general manager Terry Ryan said Friday that Mike Pelfrey no longer has numbness in his hand.
Pelfrey underwent surgery in June to relieve pressure on the ulnar nerve in his throwing elbow. Ryan said that he "wouldn't be surprised" if the righty is done for the season -- and in all likelihood, he is -- but he left the door open for a September return.
