DAILY MATCHUPS: Bieber tries to dodge the rain

Today's Overview/Schedule/Weather: Today’s 15-game slate is threatened by rain in three locations – Cleveland, Pittsburgh, and Detroit. None of these spots are doomed for postponement, but we do need to keep an eye on how potential rain might affect starting pitchers.
