Liriano to Start Today
Quote:
Long road back ends for Twins' Liriano
KANSAS CITY -- The chants rang through the visiting clubhouse at Kauffman Stadium as soon as Francisco Liriano walked in the door around 5 p.m. CT on Saturday.
"Franchise is back!" Mike Redmond shouted.
Clearly, the Twins are excited to have Liriano in their rotation once again.
Liriano rejoined his Twins teammates the day before he's set to make his return to the Major Leagues. His start Sunday afternoon against the Royals will mark the final step in what has been a long comeback from Tommy John elbow ligament replacement surgery for the 24-year-old left-hander.

Full story.
The Twins were very cautious in bringing him back to the major league level - here's hoping it pays off for them.
