Lamet struck out 12 Mariners while allowing two hits in arguably the best start of his career last August. And he might be a better pitcher in 2020. Lamet's fastball touches 100 mph with better command than last year. His slider remains filthy.

The 29-year-old southpaw is still looking for his first win after lasting just 4 2/3 innings and allowing 5 runs on 4 hits and 4 walks in his last outing vs. the Dodgers, though he hadn't pitched in 12 days after missing a start with neck spasms.

Richards should be fresh. He was removed after two innings as a precaution, because of a rising pitch count vs. the Astros last week. Now he gets an extra day of rest, thanks to the team’s off-day Monday.

Kuhl didn't have his best stuff but still held Milwaukee to one run over five innings on Friday for his first win since 2018. He's been excellent in his return from Tommy John surgery, posting a 1.00 WHIP and averaging a strikeout per inning.

After six scoreless innings and 83 pitches vs. the Reds on Saturday, Kim should be ready for a full workload in his third start since the reboot.

Clearly healthy again, Kershaw has refined his game. And when he's landing all three pitches with conviction, as he did striking out 11 Mariners on Thursday, he's polishing a Hall of Fame resume. Adding velocity as a 30-something hasn't hurt.
RHP
2-3, 4.35 ERA, 30 SO
Gausman yielded four runs over 5 1/3 innings in his last start against the Angels on Thursday. He made his most recent start against the Dodgers on Aug. 9, firing 6 1/3 innings of one-run ball.

Gray acknowledged that his last start on Thursday at St. Louis was a struggle, despite only allowing two earned runs in six innings. He was unhappy with his four walks and high pitch count (99).
RHP
1-3, 4.36 ERA, 24 SO
Houser's last line score was so-so -- seven innings, four runs, nine hits vs. the Pirates in Pittsburgh -- but they were almost all ground balls. That means his sinker was working. He'll aim for better luck against the Reds.

Lindblom still had pitches to give when he exited Saturday at PIttsburgh after five innings and 68 pitches in what Craig Counsell called an "aggressive" move. This will be his first 2020 matchup with the Reds.

Freeland, with quality starts in all six outings, has forced almost as many double-play grounders (10) in seven starts this year as he did in 21 starts last year (12). But that was a bad year; in 2018, he led the National League with 24.
RHP
3-2, 2.75 ERA, 82 SO
Gallen has been a bright spot in the rotation for the D-backs this year. He has faced the Rockies once this season and allowed just two runs over seven innings while striking out seven and not allowing a walk.

Boyd struck out 26 Twins over 19 innings in three starts last year but gave up eight homers, most of any opponent. Half of those blasts came from current Tigers Jonathan Schoop and C.J. Cron, though.
