The Twins have made an ugly start to the season and it's unlikely things will improve this afternoon. Nick Blackburn was poor in his first outing and this Texas lineup is hitting a collective .381 against him.
Minnesota have found runs hard to come by and although Yu Darvish was shaky in his debut for the Rangers against the Mariners - he put far too many on, a lethal failing in the MLB - he seemed to overcome what ailed him towards the end of his 5 2/3 innings.
I'll put it down to first night nerves and back him to hold Minnesota while his team mates get after Blackburn.
