■ Concern over Gibson could impact trades (Minneapolis Start Tribune)

There was a thought that top prospect Kyle Gibson would be ready by now, but the 2009 first-round draft pick is showing signs of fatigue at Rochester, and is 3-8 with a 4.81 ERA.

On Friday, Gibson threw just 47 of his 94 pitches for strikes in Indianapolis, walking five and striking out one in five innings.

Gibson, 23, leads the Red Wings with 95 1/3 innings pitched after throwing 152 last year on his climb from Class A to AAA. The Twins had Gibson rest from June 30 to July 17, and there is talk now of curtailing his innings again, with insiders doubting that he will pitch in the majors this year.
