Does Francisco Liriano need to throw two consecutive perfect games to make it back to the majors? It sure appears that way. He was dominant again on Tuesday at Triple-A as he won his ninth straight by throwing seven scoreless innings with 10 strikeouts, two hits and two walks. He is 9-2 with a 3.13 ERA at Triple-A, but in the last 35 innings he has allowed just one run with 42 strikeouts. Liriano's agent filed a grievance against the team for keeping Liriano's service time down by keeping him in the minors. He has to be recalled soon, especially since the Twins are fighting for a division title. He may not have this type of success in the majors, but he has done all he could in the minors to show he deserves a chance with the Twins. If you have the room, pick him up.
