Lewis Thorpe To Start Friday's Game
4 years agoMinnesota Twins pitcher Lewis Thorpe is slated to make a start on Friday against the Angels. Relief pitcher Shaun Anderson was sent down to the alternate site to make room for Thorpe, who will make his regular-season debut after an impressive spring. The 25-year-old southpaw had a rough 2020 season but looked impressive this spring, pitching to a 2.35 ERA in 7 2/3 innings with eight strikeouts compared to two walks. Thorpe will be tasked with facing an Angels' lineup that has posted the seventh-lowest strikeout rate so far.
