Player Notes
September 26, 2008
Glen Perkins will start Saturday for the Twins against the Royals and he is encouraged that the extra rest he was given will allow him to come out strong, according to The Star Tribune.

Our View:Perkins has looked awful in September with a 9.42 ERA in 14.1 innings, so even if he says he feels better he is a huge question mark heading into his final start.
September 19, 2008
The Twins have altered their rotation according to the Chicago Tribune. The move was made to avoid starting Glen Perkins against the White Sox next week. "We need to give [Perkins] a little bit of a mental break here," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire told the Star-Tribune.

Our View:Perkins is 0-1 with a 9.42 ERA in four September starts. Prior to this month, he had fantasyvalue in deep leagues or AL only formats. It appears that he has run out of gas, though.
September 15, 2008
Glen Perkins will take the hill Thursday at Tampa Bay, according to the Star Tribune. As previously reported, Scott Baker will pitch Wednesday on short rest.

Our View:He has been struggling to protect leads as of late, and the team does not want to push him after missing half of the 2007 campaign with a shoulder injury. He has already pitched 145.1 innings this season, and appears to be wearing down.
September 13, 2008
Glen Perkins was rocked for six earned runs on five hits over a mere three innings of work in Saturday's 12-6 win over Baltimore in the nightcap of the doubleheader, with two walks and two strikeouts.

Our View:Perkins was dealt a no decision and is now winless over his last three starts, allowing 13 earned runs over the span. He went 4-0 over five starts in August, and looks to be wearing down, as he has pitched 145.1 innings this season, and only 28.2 in 2007.
September 7, 2008
Minnesota's Glen Perkins lost just his fourth game of the year by allowing five runs (three earned) in 5.2 innings in the Twins 7-5 loss to the Tigers.

Our View:Despite his stellar record, Perkins has an ERA of 4.11, and has given up at least four runs in four of his last five starts.
