Plain Dealer: Fausto Carmona pounded in Tribe’s loss to Twins

MINNEAPOLIS—Maybe the best place right now for Fausto Carmona is Columbus. Pitching in the big leagues certainly isn’t doing him or the Indians much good.

The Twins battered Carmona for seven runs on five hits in two innings Thursday afternoon in an 11-3 victory at the Metrodome. In his past three starts, including two in which he didn’t get past the second inning, Carmona has allowed 19 runs on 16 hits in 7-1/3 innings.

Manager Eric Wedge says he’s considering all options regarding Carmona. Yes, that includes sending him to the minors. Carmona has one option left.

The best place for Fausto Carmona right now is pitching somewhere other than for the Cleveland Indians.

If that's Columbus, or Akron, or the Yokohama BayStars, I don't care. Just not in Cleveland. I'd like to see him figure out what's wrong and solve it and become a Cy Young contender again, but right now I just want the Indians to not be down 5-0 in the second inning every fifth day.

Forget Columbus, Carmona is off to rookie ball.
