DAILY MATCHUPS: Porcello's the pick

As a way to preview the day's games, the 2013 Daily Matchups column 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:  An extremely light day on the schedule today, as there are only five games. There are no interleague games, and only one in the NL, which also happens to be the day's only afternoon game. Despite the light schedule, rain showers could impact Cubs-Pirates, Twins-Tigers, and Indians-Red Sox. The winds at Fenway Park are expected to be 20 mph and out to left field.
