Ahh, Garza...
From CBS Sportsline:
Matt Garza, SP MINNews: The Twins plan to promote pitcher Matt Garza from Triple-A Rochester in time for Friday night's game at Detroit. "Garza will pitch out of the bullpen, but probably start one of the doubleheader games next Friday at Chicago," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said Thursday.
Analysis: Garza is 4-6 with a 3.92 ERA in 16 starts at Rochester. After starting 2006 at Class A, Garza quickly worked his way up to the Twins. Often relying on his fastball, he was 3-6 with a 5.76 ERA in nine starts for Minnesota last year. "He knows he can't survive on just a fastball. Hopefully, he's worked on that," catcher Joe Mauer said. Consider the top prospect in deeper leagues for Fantasy Week 14 (July 1-8), especially since he is expected to get a start.
Guess we'll finally find out how those other pitches are coming along...

yeah
brad thompson did something like this (except it was even longer, something crazy like 58 innings) in AA a couple years ago. everybody said he was a marginal prospect, but he was very good for the cardinals last year out of the pen and this year with all the injuries/general suckitude they've had in the rotation, has gotten a chance to start.
