Vilma listed as 'probable' for Thursday night

Saints MLB Jonathan Vilma (groin) is listed as probable for Thursday night's opener versus Minnesota.

Tracy Porter has been slightly hobbled by a lower-body injury, but is listed as probable. The "P" tag means the team considers the players virtually certain to be available for normal duties. Vilma won't come off the field against the Vikings. Porter will be on Bernard Berrian for most of the night.
