Minnesota Twins pitcher Randy Dobnak looked very impressive as he earned his first win of the season over the Cleveland Indians on Friday night. Dobnak pitched six shutout innings, allowing three hits and a pair of walks while striking out five batters. He generated eight whiffs, five of them on his new-and-improved slider. Dobnak's sinker was also very effective, as it was a putaway pitch on three of his punchouts and a weapon he utilized to induce seven of his 11 groundball outs on the night. The strong effort lowered Dobnak's season ERA to 5.75, and he seems to have righted the ship after a bit of a slow start to the 2021 season. Someone will have to be sent back down to Triple-A when Michael Pineda (thigh) returns, though Dobnak made a strong case Friday night that it should be anyone but him.--Tim Capurso

The Minnesota Twins are set to recall right-hander Randy Dobnak from the minors. Dobnak last pitched in the major leagues on Sept. 1, 2021. The 29-year-old is 9-5 with a 3.61 ERA at Triple-A St. Paul this year and leads the International League in victories, is third in innings pitched (99 1/3) and strikeouts (102) and is fourth in ERA. He pitched in 42 games from 2019-21 for the Twins and started 26 contests, going 11-15 with a 4.94 ERA before signing a five-year, $9.25 million deal in 2021. Dobnak is earning $2.25 million in 2024. He suffered a rupture of the tiny ligaments in his right middle finger three years ago and recurred even worse in 2022. Dobnak had to remake himself as a slider/changeup pitcher because of the injury. He's likely to pitch in a long-relief role in Minnesota, which won't give him much fantasy appeal.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Minnesota Twins pitcher Randy Dobnak (finger) will reportedly start a rehab assignment Thursday, per a tweet from 5 Eyewitness News' Darren Wolfson. Dobnak has yet to pitch in the majors this season. In 50 2/3 innings for the Twins last season, the 27-year-old pitched to a 7.64 ERA and a 5.70 FIP with 27 strikeouts and 12 walks. Dobnak made 14 appearances for the Twins last season, six of which were starts. As of now, Minnesota's current rotation options include Joe Ryan, Sonny Gray, Tyler Mahle, Chris Archer and Dylan Bundy.--Ben Rosener - RotoBaller

Minnesota Twins right-hander Randy Dobnak (finger) had another setback in his recovery from a right middle finger strain and had a cortisone shot in his finger on July 1. Dobnak had played catch from 120 feet and threw a 15-pitch fastball-only bullpen session at around 75% before his most recent setback. He'll be down for about two more weeks before he tries to ramp up again, but he thinks he could make a reasonably quick return to pitching thereafter in around a month and a half if his finger cooperates. There's a surgical option, but there's very little precedent for that procedure in a baseball context. The 27-year-old has yet to pitch for Minnesota in 2022, and there remains no timetable for his return.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
