At Guaranteed Rate Field
RHP
2-0, 1.64 ERA, 8 SO
Wainwright faced trouble early in his first start of the season on July 25, but he settled down to only allow one run on three hits against the Pirates. The veteran pitcher struck out five while walking one.
RHP
1-2, 4.88 ERA, 32 SO

Royals @ Twins
At Target Field
RHP
0-1, 6.30 ERA, 12 SO
Because Friday's game was postponed, Ian Kennedy will open against the Twins in Game 1 of a doubleheader before making way for Jakob Junis. In his last outing against Minnesota, Junis went 4 2/3 innings and allowed five hits and two runs while striking out two.
RHP
0-0, 5.14 ERA, 8 SO
Odorizzi was rusty on Saturday in his three-inning season debut, but that was expected following his absence due to an intercostal strain. He felt healthy and hopes to settle in with more game reps.

Brewers @ Cubs
At Wrigley Field
RHP
1-1, 3.27 ERA, 18 SO

RHP
0-0, 4.26 ERA, 3 SO
Rea has three strikeouts, no walks and one hit allowed in three shutout innings out of the Cubs' bullpen this year. He is making a spot start with Tyler Chatwood (scratched from Friday's start) day to day with mid-back tightness.

Mets @ Phillies
At Citizens Bank Park
LHP
0-4, 9.00 ERA, 23 SO
After Matz allowed eight runs to the Nationals last time out, he and the Mets tried to determine if he's tipping his pitches. The Mets desperately need to find a quick fix for Matz, given their other rotation issues.
RHP
2-1, 2.05 ERA, 37 SO
Nola has dominated in his last two starts, striking out 12 Yankees on Monday and 10 Braves on Aug. 5. He looks like the guy that finished third in National League Cy Young Award voting in 2018 -- a great sign for the Phillies.

Braves @ Marlins
At Marlins Park
LHP
3-0, 1.24 ERA, 28 SO
Fried will be working with an extra day of rest after throwing five scoreless against the Phillies on Sunday. The lefty has limited opponents to a .169 batting average through four impressive starts. He led National League lefties with 17 wins last year.
LHP
0-1, 4.35 ERA, 6 SO
Castano, who will make his second career start, worked 4 1/3 innings in his MLB debut at the Mets. He used a three-pitch mix, throwing his four-seam fastball on 57.9% of offerings, paired with a slider (26.3%) and a changeup (15.8%).

Guardians @ Tigers
At Comerica Park
RHP
4-0, 1.30 ERA, 54 SO
Bieber walked away from his last outing saying he had a lot to work on. But the Tribe's ace still tossed six innings, allowing three runs on four hits with eight strikeouts.
RHP
2-1, 2.78 ERA, 21 SO
No starter on the Tigers has nastier stuff this season than Turnbull, who has fanned 18 over as many innings and has a 30 percent whiff rate on his fastball. His spin rate is up on all of his pitches, which he says is unintentional.

Rays @ Blue Jays
At Sahlen Field
LHP
0-2, 4.13 ERA, 15 SO
Yarbrough gave up four runs in 4 1/3 innings his last time out, facing the Red Sox for a second straight start. In his first start of the season, he went 5 1/3 scoreless innings vs. the Blue Jays.
RHP
0-0, 3.00 ERA, 4 SO
Anderson's 2020 debut was sharp coming off a strained oblique, allowing just one run over three innings. The right-hander threw 45 pitches, so he should be able to expand that by another inning or two this weekend.

Athletics @ Giants
At Oracle Park
LHP
0-2, 7.65 ERA, 18 SO
Like Jesús Luzardo on Friday, Manaea's start is being moved up a day because Frankie Montas was scratched from the series opener with upper back tightness.
RHP
0-1, 4.21 ERA, 34 SO
Gausman delivered the Giants' first quality start of the season on Sunday after firing 6 1/3 innings of one-run ball at Dodger Stadium. He is 1-2 with a 2.77 ERA in four starts against the A's.

Red Sox @ Yankees
At Yankee Stadium
RHP
1-2, 5.93 ERA, 27 SO
The flame-throwing righty was strong in his last start, equaling a career high of 10 strikeouts while walking none over six innings against the Blue Jays. Eovaldi has pitched well at Yankee Stadium in his career, going 10-5 with a 3.54 ERA.
LHP
1-1, 7.04 ERA, 18 SO
Paxton is coming off an encouraging 11-strikeout outing against the Rays in which his fastball touched 93.9 mph. Crediting mechanical tweaks to create separation with his hips, he permitted one hit through six scoreless innings before serving up a pair of homers in the seventh, settling for a no-decision.

Mariners @ Astros
At Minute Maid Park
LHP
0-1, 3.14 ERA, 11 SO
The 24-year-old made his first start in place of the injured Kendall Graveman on Aug. 8 and held the Rockies to 3 hits and a walk in 3 1/3 scoreless innings. He'll look to build on that 61-pitch outing now after starting the year in a relief role.
RHP
2-1, 2.91 ERA, 21 SO
Javier was hit for five runs and three hits in three innings in his third Major League start Sunday against the A’s in Oakland. He’s struck out 16 batters in 15 2/3 innings as a starter and reliever.

Nationals @ Orioles
At Oriole Park at Camden Yards
LHP
2-1, 3.91 ERA, 22 SO
After facing only New York teams in his first three outings of the season, Corbin will make his third career start against the Orioles. He is 0-1 with a 3.38 ERA vs. Baltimore.
RHP
1-2, 4.34 ERA, 17 SO
Wojciechowski is looking for his first win of the season after taking a no-decision his last time out and losing his first two starts. Still, the right-hander owns a 3.95 ERA and a 25 percent strikeout rate.

Padres @ D-backs
At Chase Field
RHP
2-0, 2.92 ERA, 13 SO
Quantrill will make his first start of the 2020 season after pitching well in relief to begin the year, going 2-0 with a 3.12 ERA in three appearances and striking out eight over 8 2/3 innings. The righty threw 1 1/3 scorelesss innings vs. Arizona on July 27.
LHP
1-0, 3.86 ERA, 15 SO
Young will take the spot of Madison Bumgarner in the rotation. Bumgarner is on the IL with a mid-back strain and is expected to miss this start and possibly another. Young made 17 appearances (15 starts) during his rookie campaign last year.

Rangers @ Rockies
At Coors Field
RHP
1-2, 3.74 ERA, 17 SO
Gibson is making his first career start against the Rockies. He has made 20 career starts against National League teams and is 4-11 with a 5.40 ERA and a 1.59 WHIP.
RHP
2-3, 2.25 ERA, 30 SO
The last time he faced the Rangers on Opening Day, Márquez limited Texas to two hits and one run in 5 2/3 innings. He hasn't given up more than two earned runs in any of his three starts since.

Dodgers @ Angels
At Angel Stadium
RHP
0-0, 5.21 ERA, 17 SO
There was progress in his last start, as Buehler pitched into the sixth inning and limited the damage despite four walks and a hit batter. All four walks led off innings, but he allowed only one hit in 5 2/3 innings.
LHP
1-1, 4.74 ERA, 25 SO
Heaney is off to a solid start this year, but struggled against the Rangers last time out. He gave up five runs over 3 2/3 innings.
