Odorizzi to face Royals in return from IL

Jake Odorizzi will make his 2020 debut when the Twins meet left-hander Danny Duffy (0-2, 4.11 ERA) and the Royals tonight at 6:05 p.m. CT in the second of a three-game series at Kauffman Stadium. Odorizzi began the regular season on the 10-day injured list with a right intercostal strain. The All-Star right-hander's buildup for the full workload of a regular season is still not complete, and he expects to be held to around 70 pitches in Saturday's start. The game will be broadcast live on MLB.TV.
