After a much-deserved off day, the Rays open up a three-game series tonight in Minneapolis against the AL Central-leading Minnesota Twins. They’ll send Blake Snell, Charlie Morton, and an opener to the mound poised for revenge after losing three of four at home to Minnesota in late May/early June.
Before the Rays return home to a 10-game homestead, we are blessed with another battle between these AL heavyweights. Here are three burning questions heading into the series.
Can Blake Snell get back to pitching like #CySnell?
The reigning Cy Young winner starts for the Rays tonight coming off the shortest outing of his career: tagged for six runs in one-third of an inning last Wednesday at Yankee Stadium.
