Games of the Day

The Astros and Red Sox get an early start in Boston as Framber Valdez takes on Lucas Giolito. Valdez looks long-term hot, as he pitched just one poor start in his last 14 appearances. He stands 10-0 with a 1.84 ERA in that span. The Red Sox now occupy the top wild card slot. Giolito turned his season around since June 10th, with a 2.17 ERA in that time.

Luis Gil returns to the Yankees rotation to try to prevent a Marlins sweep. Edward Cabrera stands in opposition. Gil struck out 24 in14 1/3 rehab innings in the minors. Cabrera, at seasonal age 27, is posting the best numbers of his career. He holds opponents to a .310 OBP and a .377 slugging percentage.

Jacob deGrom tries to get the Rangers into a tie with the Mariners as he takes on Seattle’s Logan Evans. Texas waited for the payoff from deGrom, but with him healthy owns a 10-3 record and a 2.55 ERA in 21 starts. He no longer blows away batters like he once did, but he still induces weak contact, with .238 BABIP against him. Evans owns a 4.22 ERA in his rookie year. He’s been hurt by allowing eleven home runs in 64 innings.

Logan Evans faces Shane Smith in a battle of rookies as the Mariners visit the White Sox. Evans owns a 2.57 in four starts despite giving up 24 hits and eight walks in 21 innings. One reason his ERA seems low comes from five of the eleven runs against him judged as unearned. Smith owns a 2.05 ERA in 48 1/3 innings, and seven of the eighteen runs against him were unearned. Both limit power, however.

Jacob deGrom visits Yankee Stadium as the Rangers face Ryan Yarbrough. In his last four starts, deGrom owns a 1.12 ERA with 27 strikeouts and just four walks in 24 innings. He received the win in all four games. Yarbrough held batters to a .219/.297/.312 slash line in his two starts, better than he did out of the bullpen.

The Cubs go for a three-game sweep of the Brewers in Milwaukee as Shota Imanaga takes on Freddy Peralta. Imanaga does a good job of keeping batters off base, holding them to .278 OBP. Fifteen of his 31 hits allowed went for extra-bases, however, including seven home runs, leading to his 2.77 ERA. Peralta holds a 2.52 ERA. His OBP allowed is about the same at .272, but only nine of his 28 hits allowed went for extra bases.

The Mariners go for a sweep of the Rangers in Texas with Logan Evans pulling the assignment against Jacob deGrom. Evans makes his second MLB start after winning his first with two runs allowed in five innings. He did an excellent job of limiting home runs in his 147 2/3 minor league innings. deGrom’s ERA of 2.73 is nearly right on his career mark of 2.73. His strikeout rate is down and is home run rate is up from his career norms, but he’s made up for that by reducing walks.
