DAILY MATCHUPS: First Wednesday brings first full slate of the season
Apr 7 2015
As a way to preview the day's games, the 2015 Daily Matchups column seeks to highlight the outliers or notable matchups on the HQ Pitcher Matchup tool (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: The first Wednesday of the regular season brings the first full slate of games as all 30 teams are scheduled on Wednesday, April 8. The schedule calls for two day games (MIN at DET, STL at CHC) and 13 evening affairs. Weather looks to be an issue for a number of these games, particularly for tilts in Detroit, Cincinnati and Kansas City.
