Description: The Twins will recall Samuel Deduno from Triple-A Rochester to start Friday's game against the Tigers.
Insight: Deduno broke out during the World Baseball Classic, allowing just one run and posting a 17/5 K/BB in 13 innings to help the Dominican Republic win the tournament. He went 6-5 with a 4.44 ERA and a 1.54 WHIP in 79 innings last year and shouldn't have much fantasy value outside AL-only leagues.

Description: Righthander Samuel Deduno came up big Wednesday night in Minnesota's 10-0 win over the Mariners at Target Field.

Description: Twins starter Samuel Deduno held the Red Sox scoreless on just two hits over six innings Thursday to improve to 3-0.
Insight: Deduno has been effectively wild in his five starts this season, recording a 19/20 K/BB ratio in 29 innings but also putting up a 2.48 ERA. AL-only owners can take note of Deduno's performance, but mixed leaguers can steer clear as this is likely a mirage.

Description: Twins starter Samuel Deduno surrendered just one run on two hits in seven innings of work Saturday against the Indians. Deduno allowed five walks but he also had six strikeouts.
Insight: He's 2-0 with a 3.13 ERA in four starts this season and might be worth taking a look at in deeper leagues.
