The Twins are expected to move Scott Baker (elbow) to the back of the rotation for the beginning of the second half. They're hoping the 12 days of rest between starts will be enough to allow him to get over a mild flexor muscle strain in his pitching elbow. Francisco Liriano is expected to get the ball next Thursday in the team's first game after the break.
