September call-ups and the direction for the team in that month is a hot topic on this week’s edition of "Inside Twins." Twins' CBO Derek Falvey discusses the possibility of the team using a 6-man rotation over the final month of the season, along with if the team will consider the concept of "an opener". The game has always evolved from era to era, and Derek feels it's a new way to prevent runs. The team is anxious to see Byron Buxton play in his 3rdstraight game for Rochester today, but there a ton of variables which will go into if Byron is called-up or just focused on a re-set in Spring Training. Derek also provides an update on Michael Pineda, Matt Belisle and Ervin Santana.
