Despaigne allowed two hits -- including a home run -- and three walks while retiring two batters Monday against the Twins.
Despaigne has allowed runs in five of seven outings this spring and has not thrown more than 23 pitches in a game. That should all but kill his chances of making the team out of spring training. Look for Despaigne to add organizational depth at Triple-A. The way things are looking right now, he would not be among the first two or three pitchers recalled if a need arises.
