SILENCE THE BATS: Nolasco has held opponents to a .216 (22-for-122) batting average this season, the best mark among all Twins starters, and fourth best among all Twins pitchers...among AL starting pitchers, his .216 opponent average is 15th while his .236 opponent on-base percentage is third.

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 straight 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).

VS. DETROIT: Nolasco has made five career appearances, all starts, against the Tigers, his first one coming on June 15, 2014 when he did not factor in the decision...Nolasco is 2-1, 3.58 ERA (27.2 IP, 11 ER) with 12 walks and 25 strikeouts in his career against the Tigers...Nolasco has only made one career start against the Tigers at Target Field, September 16, 2014, when he tossed 8.0 shutout innings, allowing five hits, one walk, and five strikeouts.

2015 RECAP: • Began second season with Minnesota and was club's number two starter. • Made one start before being placed on 15-day disabled list April 11 with right elbow

inflammation.• Made one rehab start for Single-A Cedar Rapids; returned from rehab and reinstated

May 2.• Won five straight games May 2-25, tied for second longest win-streak of career.• Recorded 100th career victory May 25 vs. Boston, also surpassing 1,500 career innings

pitched in that start.• Placed back on 15-day disabled list June 4 with a right ankle impingement...had ankle

surgery July 13, performed by Dr. Robert Anderson.• Transferred to 60-day disabled list July 8, making room on 40-man roster for Ryan

O'Rourke; reinstated September 8.

SPRING RECAP: Nolasco made four starts during the spring and had one relief appear-ance...he went 1-0, 5.71 ERA (17.1 IP, 11 ER) with six walks and 20 strikeouts...in his final spring outing April 2 at Washington, he allowed five earned runs in 4.0 innings of work, giving up six hits with one walk and six strikeouts...his longest outing came in the start March 23rd vs. Tampa Bay when he went 6.0 innings not allowing an earned run while giving up three hits with two walks and seven strikeouts.

FIRST GEAR: In Nolasco's eight starts in 2015, he did not allow a first-inning run...opponents hit just .148 (4-for-27) in the first inning with only one extra-base hit, four walks and four strikeouts...he posted a 8.59 ERA (29.1 IP, 28 ER) and .357 (46-for-129) average against in all other innings...Nolasco's career 5.28 ERA (247.0 IP, 145 ER) in the first inning is his second highest career ERA in a single inning, only better than the 5.47 ERA (103.0 IP, 63 ER) he has posted in the seventh.

WHERE HE RANKS: Since Nolasco made his debut in 2006, he has made 247 starts, the 14th 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 100 wins...Ervin Santana is the only Twin with more career starts (317) and wins (126) than Nolasco.
