The Minnesota Twins open a three-game series against the Chicago White Sox after suffering three consecutive losses in St. Louis. The team has called up reliever Darren McCaughan from AAA St. Paul, while pitcher Randy Dobnak has been designated for release. Chris Paddack is set to make his first regular-season start since last year's All-Star break. Despite chilly weather conditions, Paddack hopes his experience with cold weather will provide an advantage. He has adjusted his throwing routine to maintain arm health following his recovery from Tommy John surgery.
"The surgeon who performed Paddack's second Tommy John elbow surgery in 2022, Dr. Keith Meisner, told me whenever I take time off, even just a couple of days, my body doesn't respond very well to ramping back up."
"So I might have an advantage over most guys because I'm used to the high winds and cold mornings out on the hunt."
