Will the Twins figure out how to score? Their last two runs came on bases-loaded walks from guys that won't be on the Opening Day roster. Before that, they were shut out for two consecutive games. I suppose we can take solace in the fact that the regulars are typically only in for half a game (2-3 plate appearances) so it's not like they're cold. They're more like, half-cold. So, lukewarm?
Lineups are posted. Interesting feature here is that despite this technically being an interleague match-up, the Twins will be allowed to use the designated hitter while the Pirates will have their pitchers batting.
