[turok]

"Two AL starters who didn?t sign until late in spring training, the Twins? Lance Lynn and the Orioles? Alex Cobb, have been absolutely horrendous through the first quarter of the season."

"Lynn, who signed a one-year, $12 million deal with the Twins in March (and also cost them a second-round pick because he received a qualifying offer), has posted a 7.47 ERA and 2.04 ERA over eight starts"

Tigers' Matthew Boyd doesn't think oblique spasm is serious.
