The Twins have placed 27-year old righty reliever Jesse Crain on the 15-day disabled list with a case of right shoulder inflammation. Crain has pitched in 7 games (0 starts) for the Twins this season and he is 1-0 with a 7.50 ERA and a 1.33 WHIP. Crain will be replaced in the bullpen by 24-year old lefty Jose Mijares. Mijares pitched in 5 games (0 starts) in AAA-ball this season and he was 1-0 with a 0.00 ERA and a 0.47 WHIP. He only allowed 2 hits in only 6 1/3 innings this season. Mijares pitched in 10 games (0 starts) for the Twins last season and he was 0-1 with a 0.87 ERA and a 0.29 WHIP. He only allowed 3 hits while not walking any batters in 10 1/3 innings last season with the Twins. Mijares will give the Twins’ bullpen a big boost.
