Left-hander Dallas Keuchel will make his first start of the season on Sunday afternoon when the Minnesota Twins try to complete a three-game series sweep of the Arizona Diamondbacks in Minneapolis.
Keuchel, the 2015 American League Cy Young Award winner, had his contract selected from Triple-A Saint Paul on Thursday after Twins right-hander Joe Ryan was placed on the 15-day injured list with a left groin strain.
After healing up physically and working on his mechanics at the Driveline Baseball Academy in Scottsdale, Ariz., Keuchel signed a minor league contract with the Twins on June 22. He made six starts for Saint Paul, where he went 1-0 with a 1.13 ERA while earning the International League Pitcher of the Month honors for July.
Keuchel, who is 3-3 with a 3.86 ERA in seven career starts against Arizona, will be joining a first-place Twins team that has won four of its last five games and holds a 3 1/2-game lead over Cleveland in the AL Central. The Twins, who hit three solo home runs to win the series opener 3-2 on Friday night, clubbed four more, including two by catcher Ryan Jeffers, in a 12-1 victory on Saturday night. It was the Diamondbacks' fifth straight loss, and they were out-hit 17-2.
