    When will Liriano be ready?
    Twins pitcher Francisco Liriano is still recovering from arm surgery and it is unclear whether or not he will be ready for Spring Training. Liriano was 12-3 with a 2.16 ERA in 121 innings in 2006, and it looked like he and Johan Santana would be one of the best one-two punches in the league.

    I think the Twins should take it slow with Liriano, I would not rush him back at all and then possibly set him back even longer. This kid if healthy can be one of the best pitchers in the game

      I heard most likely he would miss the first six weeks and then pitch from the bullpen. Maybe after all star break he would become a starter.

        I hope he has a smooth transition back into the league. I love watching him pitch
