Orosco a Twin

I just noticed that Jesse Orosco was back in the majors, knocking Rickey Henderson out of the oldest active player spot. The Twins actually traded a prospect for him, Juan Padilla, who looks like he has decent minor league numbers. I find it hard to believe that the Twins don't have one young lefty in their organization that can do as well as Orosco. Yes, he can get the lefties out okay, but he can't get righties out at all. So when he comes into the game, all you have to do is pinch hit with a righty, and you'll have Barry Bonds at the plate. Jesse should retire. He's a nice story, but it's worn thin.
