Eduardo Escobar makes his debut in a Twins uniform tonight at shortstop. Let's see who won the Liriano trade!
Your starting pitchers:
Twins
Scott Diamond makes his triumphant return tonight from the six-game suspension he received for throwing a ball near Josh Hamilton on August 23. SB Nation has apparently forgotten who Diamond is and hence there are no statistics for him. I am sorry.
White Sox
Rookie Jose Quintana takes the mound for the White Sox tonight. SB Nation has also forgotten who Quintana is, apparently. I am sorry. But I can tell you Jose was shelled in his last outing, giving up five runs (including two dingers) in 3 2/3 innings pitched.
