The Angels open a seven-game homestand against the Minnesota Twins this week.
Since these two teams just met a little while ago – and have a rematch in Minnesota next week – we decided to take a little different tack with this week's 'Five Questions.' We reached out to USA Today baseball columnist Bob Nightengale for some perspective on the start of the major-league season as April becomes May.
