Daisuke Matsuzaka
* #18 RHP
* (0-2) 10.32 ERA 9 SO
The enigmatic right-hander was unimpressive in his return from the disabled list on Friday, yielding four runs on five hits over five innings against the Mets at Fenway Park. He came undone in a three-run fourth inning, when New York strung together three RBI singles in a span of four at-bats against the Japanese righty. Still winless in three starts this season, Matsuzaka is 2-0 with a 1.61 ERA in three career appearances against Minnesota.

Kevin Slowey
* #59 RHP
* (6-1) 4.23 ERA 39 SO
One start after throwing 7 2/3 innings against the Yankees in a no-decision in New York, Slowey picked up his sixth win of the season on Friday by going 7 1/3 innings against a red-hot Milwaukee Brewers team. He allowed just two earned runs in the start, lowering his ERA to 4.23. Unlike during his start in New York, Slowey benefited from some run support, as Michael Cuddyer's cycle propelled the Twins to an 11-3 victory. He'll be facing the Red Sox for the first time this season.
