Goodbye Resto

The Twins cut loose Rochester native and former top prospect Michael Restovich today.
Resto was highly touted for a blend of speed and power, and had grown up dreaming of playing for the Twins.
He also once homered twice in one game against me.
Tampa bay picked him up, and hopefully they'll give him a chance to play.
It's too bad, though, that he never got much of a chance in Minny.
The move also means the Twins are likely going to keep Corky Miller. The last roster spot is between him and Terry Tiffee.
Tiffee could help the Twins in countless ways, as he is a switch-hitter who can play 1st and 3rd, meaning on certain days Cuddyer could play second and Tiffee 3rd.
But Tiffee has options left, meaning the team can send him down without losing his rights.
Corky is out of options, so the Twins will keep his .026 batting ass and send Tiffee down.
Junior Ortiz and big-league Sal Butera are still available as of this writing.

The Twins also released veteran lefty CJ Nitkowski, meaning Matt Guerrier has earned the final spot on the pitching staff. Nitkowski posted a 1.35 ERA and .156 opp batting avg. this spring, but I guess Guerrier's 87 MPH fastball was too much to expose to the waiver wire.
Have a day, Gardy.
