Baltimore hasn’t been the most dynamic team at the plate, but they always seem to produce in a timely manner. Outfielders Anthony Santander and Ryan Mountcastle are enjoying breakout seasons at the plate, with the former on-pace to set a career-high in home runs.

Stripling has fanned five or more hitters in three of his last four games, and he’s only given up more than 3 runs in one of his last eleven starts.
Stripling’s outings usually go into the fifth inning, and rarely beyond that, so look for their bullpen to factor into this home bout. Toronto’s relief corps have combined for a 3.88 ERA, while giving up a league-worst 58 home runs.
