Scott Diamond might just be the next Twins roster superstar

Have you heard of Scott Diamond? If you're not a Twins fan...or haven't been paying attention to the Twins at all this season (not that I blame you) then you probably haven't. But you should definitely be paying attention to him - because I have a feeling that he's going to carry us through the rest of the season this year.

Born in Canada in 1986, Diamond attended Binghamton University where he received a full athletic scholarship. He was originally signed to the Braves in 2008 as an undrafted free agent and was eventually selected by the Twins in 2010. He was finally called up to the majors in May of this year and has been turning heads ever since.

His win-loss record is 6-6, which is not just impressive for a rookie but impressive for this team. Have you SEEN the rest of the pitching roster lately? I'm just hoping that it's not the early rush of being part of the big team and that his steam doesn't run out before the end of the season. If he can keep chugging along, I have a feeling that this kid has a bright future as a member of the Twins roster.
