The Twins are here

Tonight we get a pretty intriguing matchup of young pitchers, Francisco Liriano and Ian Snell. Liriano has been consistently very good since the Twins put him in the rotation while Snell hasn't been anything consistently except inconsistent. Still, if Snell's can continue on his recent hot streak he can get just about anyone out, and the Twins below average lineup (except for Joe Mauer, nothing average about that guy) should be no exception. For some added fun, we get to watch the Twins pitchers bat this weekend and watching AL pitchers bat is usually as fun as watching relief pitchers take cuts.
