DAILY MATCHUPS: Shields faces former club

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:  A full slate of 15 games on the schedule today, all of them taking place in the evening. The interleague series taking place is the Phillies versus the Indians. Weather looks nice across the country, so the last day of April shouldn't see any games postponed. Preliminary reports have the winds at Wrigley Field to be in excess of 20 mph and out to left field.
