0-0, 5.19 ERA, 8 SO
The Mets will continue the process of stretching out Gsellman as a starter in Saturday’s matinee. Gsellman threw 33 pitches and then 47 pitches in his first two starts. Taking the mound for the first time in 12 days, he should be good for around 60 this time out.
LHP
1-1, 4.05 ERA, 11 SO
Happ has pitched just twice in August, and is set to make his first start in 13 days. In his last outing, the veteran held the Red Sox to a solo homer over 5 2/3 innings, picking up the win in a 4-2 victory.

The last time Dobnak pitched at Comerica Park, he clinched the AL Central title for the 2019 Twins. This time, he'll go for his sixth consecutive win, coming off another solid five-inning, two-run start.
LHP
1-4, 7.27 ERA, 39 SO
Boyd struck out 26 Twins over 19 innings in three starts last year, but allowed eight home runs, his most against any opponent. Half of those homers came from current Tigers Jonathan Schoop and C.J. Cron, but the other half came off Boyd’s fastball.

Skubal could be in line for another short start after going 2 1/3 innings over 69 pitches on Sunday in Cleveland, but those pitches looked much better than in his debut. He struck out five Sunday and had hitters chasing well-located fastballs.

Carrasco is still searching for an answer to his recent troubles. Although his walks were down last time out, he turned in his shortest outing of the year, permitting four runs in 3 1/3 innings.
RHP
2-0, 1.93 ERA, 17 SO
Flaherty pitched five shutout innings against the Royals on Monday, allowing just one hit while striking out three. He extended to 64 pitches and will likely be able to go further against the Indians.

RHP
2-1, 4.10 ERA, 37 SO
The good news is that Eflin has struck out 24 batters in 15 1/3 innings over his last three starts. The bad news is that he has allowed 11 earned runs for a 6.46 ERA in that span.

Finally, some variety for Singer, who faced the Twins in each of his past three starts and allowed nine runs across 14 2/3 innings. This will be the rookie's first look at the White Sox. He's had particular trouble against lefties, but the Sox lineup is predominantly right-handed.
RHP
4-2, 3.00 ERA, 27 SO
Cease pitched well enough to win against the Cubs on Sunday, eventually getting beat by Kyle Schwarber’s two-run home run in the sixth. Cease has a 4-1 mark with a 2.15 ERA over five August starts.

Bassitt was the victim of rare poor defense by the A's infield in his last start, with two of his four runs allowed being unearned due to multiple errors in a loss to the Angels.

Darvish was masterful last time out, striking out 10, walking one and holding the White Sox to one run (via homer) in seven innings of a win. The righty went 1-2 with a 4.60 ERA in five starts vs. the Reds in 2019.
RHP

Bauer gave up nearly as many hits (7) in his first loss on Monday vs. the Brewers as he had in his previous four starts (8). A pair of homers also hurt in a 4-2 loss.

López's changeup has been his most effective pitch. He has thrown it 29.3 percent of the time -- his most frequently used pitch -- and opponents have an expected batting average of .210 vs. it. Opponents are batting .222 against his fastball.

The O's most consistent starter this season, Cobb is fully healed from the hip issues that derailed his 2019 season. The veteran righty is 1-2 with a 3.73 ERA over six starts, and one of Baltimore's best trade chips.
RHP

Walker makes his Blue Jays debut after coming over in a deal from the Mariners, but he hasn't pitched since Aug. 19. One of the main appeals of Walker is his ability to pitch deep into games, which Toronto's bullpen would love to see.
