The Twins are hoping that they'll get a significant contribution from pitcher Francisco Liriano in 2010.
He is coming off his worst season with Minnesota, having gone 5-13 with a 5.80 ERA in 2009. However, Liriano appears have to bounced back in the Dominican Winter League.
The left-hander went 3-1 with a 0.49 ERA in seven playoff starts, while recording 47 strikeouts and five walks in 37 innings.
Thats huge if we can have a big time ace and then Duensing or Baker or Blackburn stepping up as a true #2
