The bullpen is overworked already. With the big road trip coming up and the way the team has pitched on the road, the Twins are going to need an extra pitcher for the rest of the month. I don't think they can piece things together with what they've got until Sept 1. Ruiz has been doing his job, but there aren't enough at bats for him to make him more valuable than another arm. Even if they just brought Korecky up until Casilla comes back, it would give Guerrier some much needed rest (with Crain taking over the 8th inning).

It would be better to bring back Monroe. Sheffield is hitting .223/.323/.394 this year. He's 39 years old and due $14 million next year. You’re right T. It would be better to bring back Monroe.
