Brian McCann is hitting .339 (21-for-62) with five doubles, eight home runs and 24 RBI; in his career, Nolasco has only faced David Wright (66 at-bats) more than McCann.

• Nolasco is 9-12, 5.47 ERA (148.0 IP, 90 ER) with 35 walks and 116 strikeouts in 26 career starts vs. the AL Central; his 5.47 ERA is his highest career mark against any division.

IN HIS DEFENSE: Despite his 5.12 ERA (77.1 IP, 44 ER) this season, Nolasco is sporting a 3.47 FIP (fielding independent pitching), a statistic that estimates a pitcher's run pre-vention independent of the performance of his defenders...the 1.63 discrepancy between his ERA and FIP is the second largest of his career (minimum 10 starts) behind only his 1.71 (5.06 ERA, 3.35 FIP) difference in 2009...his 1.6 walks-per-9.0 innings and 4.86 strikeout-to-walk ratio are both the best of his career, and his 7.9 strikeouts-per-9.0 innings is the third best (minimum 10 starts).• Nolasco's 14 walks this season is the fewest by an AL starter with a minimum of 13

starts; Phil Hughes' 16 walks in 2015 was the fewest in MLB with a minimum of 150.0 innings pitched.

INNINGS EATER: Nolasco has lasted at least 5.0 innings in 12 of his 13 starts this season...he leads the team with 77.1 innings pitched...he has completed 7.0-or-more innings four times this season, most amongst Twins starters, with his longest outing coming June 3 vs. Tampa Bay when he went 7.2 innings...Nolasco lasted 5.0-plus innings in just five of his eight starts in 2015, his last coming May 25 vs. Boston when he tossed a season-high 7.2 innings.

DUCKS ON THE POND: Nolasco has allowed a .369 (41-for-111) opponents' batting average with runners on base; the highest amongst Twins starters who have made multiple starts...with the bases empty, he is allowing a .236 (46-for-195) batting average against...his .369 opponents' batting average with runners on base ranks as the second highest in the major leagues this season amongst pitchers who have made at least seven starts; only Alfredo Simon has allowed higher (.400)...in his career, opponents are hitting .295 (735-for-2495) with runners on, as opposed to .265 (990-for-3734) with none on base.

NO JUNE SWOON: Nolasco is making his 46th career start in the month of June; he is 17-16, 4.21 ERA (282.0 IP, 132 ER) with 62 walks and 224 strikeouts in 45 career June starts...his June ERA and innings pitched are the second best marks he owns in a single month (3.98 ERA in July; 335.0 IP in May).

WHERE HE RANKS: Since Nolasco made his debut in 2006, he has made 260 starts, the 15th most of anyone in baseball that is currently on a major league roster...during this time, Nolasco is tied for 17th among current MLB pitchers with 103 wins...Ervin Santana is the only Twin with more career starts (305) and wins (115) than Nolasco in that same span. STEADY AS HE GOES: 2016 marks the 10th straight season Nolasco has been on an opening day roster (7 MIA, 3 MIN)...this is the eighth consecutive year in which Nolasco has made one of his teams' first five starts to open up the year, and he is 2-3, 5.48 ERA (42.2 IP, 26 ER) with 11 walks and 31 strikeouts in those starts...he has started Opening Day three times in his career, twice with the Marlins (2009, 2013) and once with the Twins (2014).
