The Mariners send James Paxton against the Astros and Doug Fister as both teams try to stay alive in the AL Wild Card race. Paxton allowed eight runs in 12 innings against Houston this year. Fister allowed 16 runs in 21 innings against Seattle. It may be the slugfest of the day.
The Red Sox try to clinch the AL East for the second day in a row as Clay Buchholz takes on the Yankees and Bryan Mitchell. Buchholz pitched well in three of his last four starts, and seems to be moving in the right direction. Opponents are hitting .329/.388/.466 against Mitchell in a small sample size of at bats in 2016.
Chris Tillman and Francisco Liriano square off as the Blue Jays and Orioles continue their series in Toronto. Tillman’s ERA is about one and a half runs lower on the road. Liriano allowed seven home runs in 43 innings since joining the Blue Jays.
Enjoy!
