DAILY MATCHUPS: Sale shouldering the load

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:  Almost all the teams have a game on the schedule today, with 28 of the 30 teams in action. All games today are interleague and nine of those are taking place in AL ballparks. Two afternoon games in Toronto and Houston will get the action started. The most notable weather conditions expected are 20 mph winds out to left in Kansas City for the Cardinals and Royals.
