Staff ace Carl Pavano gets his personal catcher/suspected fake arsonist Drew Butera back this evening. So, there's that.

The lefty was drafted by your Minnesota Twins in 2001, but opted to go to LSU instead. College man.

Notes:
- For those into idle speculation, Rochester PBP guy Josh Whetzel noted that Scott Diamond was pulled after pitching three scoreless innings this evening. 1500ESPN's Doogie "Darren" Wolfson further noted that Terry Ryan is at that game.
- No idea what Justin Morneau's status is for this evening or this weekend. I assume we'll find out soon enough.
Enjoy the game, everybody.
