Shovel crews are at Target Field and ready to clear any snow that that falls overnight and into Friday. The forecast calls for a total of 4-8 inches by the time this two-day mess is over with. Game time temps could be near freezing.

What timing for an interleague series. These games have to be played or it creates a mess to try to reschedule. Saturday's game is scheduled for 3:10. You wonder if the Twins will just punt on Friday's game and try to play two on Saturday, when the forecast is for a balmy 39 degrees.
