The Jays are desperate to get a solid outing from Stripling. Too many time they have had short outings from their starters that just killed their bullpen and they want to close this series on a positive note.
Toronto Blue Jays
The Jays got the win in the series opener. That made four straight against the Braves heading into Wednesday night. Vla Guerrero Jr. hit a homer for the first time in a while. It had been the combo of Bo Bichette and Marcus Semien that had been carrying the offense for a while.
The Jays are not getting much from Striplng so far this season. Based on his numbers it hard to see why that would change tonight, especially against a good hitting team like Atlanta.
Jordan Romano picked up his fist save of the season in the Jays in on Tuesday. I am not sure if that means he is the closer now but he has done the job before. Once the Jays get more healthy in the pen this team might take off again.
Atlanta Braves
I am not sure what to make of this Atlanta team. They have plenty of offense but are still not really clicking as a lineup on the whole. The pitching has been up and down, mostly down, this season which is why they are looking up at teams in NL East.
Charlie Morton has not provided much for the Braves this season. The numbers look good until you see that his ERA is close to five. Maybe he is experiencing some bad cluster luck and some positive regression is on its way.
The Braves squandered a lead in the loss on Tuesday. Some teams just have those seasons where is seems like no lead is safe and this might be one of those for Atlanta. There is time to turn it around but the bullpen has not been a strength.
Free Toronto Blue Jays vs. Atlanta Braves MLB Prediction:
I am more of a believer in Morton than Stripling. Plus he gets the chance to face a Toronto lineup without the DH this time around. He is off a disastrous outing in his last start but the veteran will rebound.
