This seems a bit reactionary, which is out of character for Eppler. Perhaps there is more to the story?

i'm with you on this. they've been using him regularly and he's done pretty well, and now suddenly they're DFAing him? doesn't add up.

There’s no way it’s as reactionary as it seems.

Agreed.

It might be do to the need of another bull pen piece and the only person the can move to the minors is Middleton so they had to let him go.

This was done to bring up Barria, right?

Ok so who was sent down to bring up Barria?  I was just reading Twitter to find the move.

Yeah - the Twins can get him back for $25,000 and stash him back in their minors. 

$50,000

What is the timeline on this? I assume they need to offer him back first; IF Minnesota says no, he has to clear waivers.  Does anyone know how long this would take? A week? A month?

[Chris]

I think we should know within 10 days.

[Lou]

7 days
