Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Jake Odorizzi (intercostal) will make his season debut on Saturday against the Kansas City Royals.
Odorizzi was placed on the injured list just before Opening Day after suffering a right intercostal strain during summer camp workouts. The 30-year-old right-hander went 15-7 with a 3.51 ERA and career-high 27.1 strikeout percentage in 159 innings (30 starts) last season.
numberFire's models expect Odorizzi to record a 4.38 ERA and 26.4 strikeout percentage this season.
