Minnesota Twins: Nick Burdi to Have Tommy John is the Latest Gut Punch

Nick Burdi will miss the rest of the season due to the injury. The timing could not be worse for Burdi. He was pitching his best yet, currently with a 0.53 ERA and 20 strikeouts in Double-A. He was high on our list as one of the prospects you will see with the Minnesota Twins this year.

The big league team will likely need an arm like Burdi soon too. With Trevor May having the same surgery earlier this year, the bullpen does not have the same shutdown presence it did a year ago.
