Indians Acquire Pino From Twins

The Indians today acquired right-handed pitcher Yohan Pino from the Minnesota Twins to complete the August 7th trade that sent right-hander Carl Pavano for a player to be named later.

Pino, 25, has split the 2009 season between AA New Britain and AAA Rochester where he has gone a combined 7-3 w/a 3.03 ERA in 40 games/12 starts (113.0IP, 98H, 38ER, 27BB, 108K). The 3.03 ERA is the 6th lowest in the Twins system. He started the year at New Britain (5-1, 3.19ERA, 32G/4GS) before being sent to AAA Rochester on July 20 (2-2, 2.82ERA, 8GS). He has worked 8.0IP in 3 of his last 4 starts since August 9 (1-1, 1.21ERA, 29.2IP, 18H, 4ER).

His numbers look pretty decent. Is he anyone to be excited about? I wasn't expecting much for Pavano.
