Pablo López and Sonny Gray are set to face off on Saturday night at 6:10 p.m. Central Time.

Gray, now with the St. Louis Cardinals, will face his former team, the Minnesota Twins, for the first time since being traded to the Cardinals in August 2022.

In two seasons with the Twins, Gray went 16-13 with a 2.90 ERA in 56 starts.

López, meanwhile, is 11-8 with a 4.47 ERA in 26 starts this season.

The right-hander is coming off a strong outing against the Chicago White Sox in which he allowed just one run on four hits in 6 2/3 innings.

The Twins and Cardinals are both in the thick of the playoff race.

The Twins are currently in second place in the American League Central, while the Cardinals are in first place in the National League Central.

Saturday night's game is sure to be a good one, with two of the best pitchers in the league going head-to-head.
