Sometimes reliever, mostly starter Luke French is a soft-tossing southpaw--the exact kind of player who would have given the Twins fits in years past. Here's hoping ghosts of the past don't haunt. We saw him back on August 1, when he allowed four runs over six innings.

His fastball averages about 87 mph, and he throws his mid to upper-70s changeup about 25% of the time overall. His breaking ball is almost more of a show-me pitch, but it's a very slow slider in the upper 70s.

In Pavstache We Trust. That is all. LET'S GO, CARL!
