Twins' Felix Jorge will take Friday's start

Minnesota Twins pitcher Felix Jorge will start against the Baltimore Orioles on Friday, Mike Berardino of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

What It Means:

Looks like Jorge will draw the start in place of Hector Santiago (back). In one previous start with the Twins this season, Jorge surrendered three runs on seven hits over five innings. It probably would not be wise to trust Jorge for fantasy purposes in what figures to be a short-leash start on Friday.

The 23-year-old Jorge holds a 3.26 ERA (3.44 xFIP), 17.2 percent strikeout rate, and 6.2 percent walk rate across 85 2/3 innings with Double-A Chattanooga.
