Cleveland +100 over Toronto

3:07 PM EST. Getting shut out by Cal Quantrill yesterday is not a good look. Neither is losing both games to the Orioles prior. Right now, the Jays pitching staff is a mess, the bats are not warm and they’re in a funk. They’ll now face the ever-tough Triston MacKenzie (RHP - CLE) and a very warm Cleveland squad.

Triston McKenzie owns an elite ERA/xERA split of 3.16/3.76 over his last eight games. Underneath that mark have been some great skills: 24% K%, 6% BB%, 18% K-BB%. He's another pitcher whose command foundation supports further growth in his skills: 14.5% swing & miss rate, 65% first-pitch strike rate and 33% ball%. Mackenzie has a BB/K split of 6/37 over his last 35 innings. Dude is humming.

With the injury to Ross Stripling, Mitch White (RHP - TOR) is now in the Blue Jays rotation. So far this season, White has been serviceable as a starter (6.7 K/9, 1.29 WHIP, 3.68 ERA but his xERA is 4.42 and let’s not dismiss the fact that he started 10 games for the Dodgers with five of those coming at Chavez Ravine, a true pitcher’s park. It also doesn’t hurt to be pitching with the lead almost all the time. American League East parks are a different animal. Furthermore, White’s strikeouts have degraded since July 1st going from 7.9 K/9 to 5.5 K/9.

It’s tough to find much rhythm when you're recalled from AAA 11 separate times, as While was last year and twice more this year. Throw in a trade to Toronto and you have a pitcher that has not found his landing spot. His role has fluctuated as well in a limited sample and he didn’t look that sharp in his Blue Jays debut last week when he took the loss Saturday versus the Twins. He allowed three runs on six hits and a walk with two strikeouts in 4.2 innings. Cleveland has to be a live pooch here.
