Jaime Garcia made his debut in Major League Baseball with a bang last season, as he finished third in voting for the National League Rookie of the Year award. Clearly, after his performances in 2010, his services would be welcomed by a lot of teams as an elite ace.

Although he is by no means a power pitcher, Brian Duensing offers his Twins decent chances at wins with his crafty pitching. Results show a career 3.07 ERA in a total of 80 games on the mound ever since he broke into the Major Leagues in 2009.

Evidence of these trends can be found by looking through stats of last season, which had him steadily improve all the way up to August, followed by a decent dip in September.
