Right-handed starting pitcher Zebby Matthews was scratched from his scheduled start on Thursday, so he will likely take Ryan's spot in the rotation. Good thing the Twins acquired Dean Kremer from the Baltimore Orioles ahead of the trade deadline. But if the Twins prefer Rojas as a reliever long-term, the next man up if the Twins suffer another starting pitching injury could be underrated right-hander Ryan Gallagher. In his last start, Gallagher allowed just one run on three hits and one walk with nine strikeouts over six innings. However, if another starting pitcher goes down, the Twins may have no choice but to promote him to the majors.
