Twins pitcher Ricky Nolasco lasted only two innings in an abysmal outing Sunday afternoon for the loss against the Yankees. After the start, manager Ron Gardenhire told reporters that he's weighing all options moving forward for Nolasco, including a potential move to the bullpen, MLB.com reports.

The right-hander permitted six runs on seven hits and one walk while failing to record a strikeout over two innings of a 9-7 defeat. Of his 42 pitches, only 25 were strikes.

Nolasco has allowed four-plus earned runs in four of his last nine starts. He owns a 5.90 ERA and a 1.62 WHIP over 18 starts (103 2/3 innings). He is tentatively scheduled to make his next start Friday at Colorado.
