Gibson pumped for frigid Opening Day start
Gibson takes no-no through six PITTSBURGH -- Right-hander Kyle Gibson left the Twins on Wednesday to fly to Minnesota in advance of his scheduled start in the home opener at Target Field on Thursday at 3:10 p.m. CT against the Mariners.
Gibson is coming off a strong outing, as he held the Orioles hitless through six innings before being lifted after 102 pitches on Saturday. The start in the home opener is a nice reward for Gibson, who had a strong second half last year and was arguably the club's best pitcher down the stretch when it made its surprise run to the American League Wild Card Game.
