The Twins have started pondering whether anything can be done to help Francisco Liriano avoid further arm problems. The all-star pitcher is out for the season after undergoing reconstructive elbow surgery and is expected to start throwing late this summer. "The big thing is how much can an arm handle with that arm speed he has, and we all saw the violent throwing motion where he spins in a circle," manager Ron Gardenhire said. "Will he get back to that? Can he get back to that? Or should he? Those are all questions we have. We're going to talk and see if there are ways to help him, but it comes down to the pitcher wanting to be able to do those things.
