The Minneapolis Star-Tribune reports that left-hander Francisco Liriano is pitching in the Dominican Winter League and has a 1.00 ERA through three starts. He is building his pitch count up in preparation for the World Baseball Classic.Let's hope that he avoids further injuring his arm which was surgically repaired a little more than a year ago. When Liriano is on, he is absolutely filthy.
