The Minnesota Twins play their first regular season game of the year tonight in Toronto. The Blue Jays have a retractable dome, so weather will not be a factor. Carl Pavano will start for the Twins, who hope to repeat as American League Central Division champions. The home opener at Target Field is one week from Friday.

MPR's Cathy Wurzer spoke to Twins baseball blogger Aaron Gleeman about what to expect from this year's team.
