After running into reigning NL Cy Young Award winner Sandy Alcantara and seeing bats stymied, the Twins have lined up a slew of men swinging from the right-hander's batter's box against southpaw Jesús Luzardo, while sending Opening Day starter Pablo López to the rubber to keep Miami bats in a hush.

That's all I've really got baseball-wise.

Ordinarily I'd look to get the game thread up a bit sooner, but today is my older sister's birthday, and I am currently with family at a Longhorn Steakhouse tapping rapidly on my phone screen to produce a thread at an appropriate advance time for the game. (Lesson learned: remember when there is a day game.)

Also, my sister does not like her birthday being made a big deal of, so you all should definitely not wish her a happy birthday in the comments.
