The Miami Marlins have expressed interest in Minnesota Twins SPs Ricky Nolasco and Tommy Milone.

Fantasy Tip: Nolasco is 1-2 with a 5.85 ERA through four starts this month and has battled command problems, issuing nine walks while striking out just eight batters over 20 innings. Milone has pitched better recently after enduring struggles of his own earlier this year, going 3-0 with a 2.33 ERA through three starts in July. Both players should see a slight uptick in fantasy value if they are dealt to the National League.

Minnesota Twins SP Tommy Milone allowed two earned runs, four hits and two walks with four strikeouts over 8 1/3 innings in a win Tuesday, July 19, against the Detroit Tigers. He threw 74 of his 109 pitches for strikes in the quality start.

Fantasy Tip: The southpaw is enjoying quite the renaissance in July, posting a 3-0 record with a 2.33 ERA over 19 1/3 innings in three starts. He has re-emerged as a useful AL-only fantasy option, although it will take a few more quality starts before mixed leaguers can trust him again.

Minnesota Twins SP Tommy Milone allowed one earned run, five hits and a walk with two strikeouts over six innings in a win Tuesday, July 5, against the Oakland Athletics, his former team.

Fantasy Tip: This was easily Milone's best start of the season. Still, despite the quality start he is only worth a look in the deepest of AL-only fantasy formats pitching for the lowly Twins.

Minnesota Twins manager Paul Molitor is uncertain if SP Tommy Milone will make his next scheduled start versus the Oakland Athletics Tuesday, July 5, after he turned in a disappointing performance against the Chicago White Sox Thursday, June 30. "Haven't really gone there yet in my mind," Molitor said.

Fantasy Tip: Milone allowed five runs on nine hits over 3 1/3 innings versus the ChiSox Thursday, with one walk and three strikeouts. If the 29-year-old left-hander is dropped from the rotation, the Twins could turn to SP Jose Berrios, who came close to tossing a no-hitter for Class AAA Rochester in his most recent outing. Milone now possesses a 6.23 ERA through seven appearances (six starts) this year and is not worth owning outside of deep AL-only formats.

Minnesota Twins SP Tommy Milone made his first start since April 25, allowing four runs, one earned, on six hits while walking two and striking out one over 3 2/3 innings in a loss to the New York Yankees Friday, June 24.

Fantasy Tip: Milone is sporting a 5.33 ERA, and despite his return to the rotation, he can be left on waivers in all formats right now.

The Minnesota Twins have recalled SP Tommy Milone from Class AAA Rochester. He will fill the starting rotation slot vacated by SP Pat Dean, who was optioned to Rochester.

Fantasy Tip: Milone was 0-1 with a 5.79 ERA at the MLB level earlier this season but went 4-0 with a 1.66 ERA in seven appearances for Rochester, with four walks and 41 strikeouts over 48 2/3 innings. Milone credited his success in the minors to being more aggressive and throwing more strikes rather than nibbling at the corners of the plate. He's worth rostering in AL-only fantasy leagues.

Minnesota Twins SP Tommy Milone was placed on waivers Thursday, May 5, according to sources.

Fantasy Tip: Milone was demoted to the bullpen last week after posting a 5.79 ERA and going winless in his first four starts. The Twins might have been willing to give him more time, but they needed to make room for Ervin Santana, who is expected to start Saturday. Kyle Gibson is reportedly making progress as he returns from a shoulder injury and could make it back as soon as next week.

Minnesota Twins SP Tommy Milone is moving to the bullpen, and SP Alex Meyer will make the start in Milone's place Tuesday, May 3.

Fantasy Tip: Milone is a soft tosser who had a 5.40 ERA and only 17 strikeouts in 20 innings over his four starts. He can be left to the waiver wire outside of maybe deep AL leagues. Meyer will be making his first major league start against the Astros Tuesday. He sported a 5.28 ERA, 1.62 WHIP and struck out 9.8 hitters per nine in the minors last year. Meyer's stay in the rotation may be brief, though, and while he has strikeout upside, he's strictly a wait-and-see option in deeper mixed leagues for now.
