David Price vs. Jon Lester/Adam Wainwright/Johnny Cueto

The 2015 season will be a new experience for David Price as he will begin his first full year as a Detroit Tiger. This sets up for some interesting pitching matchups during interleague play, including against his old rival, Jon Lester.

When Price was with the Tampa Bay Rays and Lester was with the Boston Red Sox, they saw each other plenty of times. In 2015, though, they will see each other in only two series. The first takes places June 9-10 in Detroit, with the second scheduled for August 18-19 in Chicago.

The other two pitchers Price may pitch against are Adam Wainwright and Johnny Cueto. Price will get his chance against Wainwright May 15-17 in St. Louis. An opportunity to pitch against Cueto, on the other hand, will come in a home-and-home series June 15-18. The first two games against the Reds will take place in Detroit with the second two in Cincinnati.
