DAILY MATCHUPS: Kershaw takes on the Pirates

As a way to preview the day's games, in 2013 Daily Matchups seeks to highlight the outliers or notable matchups on BaseballHQ.com's Starting Pitcher Report (also available as an 8-day scan). For more information on how to leverage the report, see our research article from 2012.

 

Today's schedule overview:  A full slate of games is on tap for the first Saturday of the 2013 season. The weather is becoming more spring-like across the country, but rain could impact play in San Francisco, Colorado, and Chicago, and a chance of storms could keep the roof closed in Milwaukee. Kansas City visits Philadelphia in game two of this weekend's interleague matchup.
