MLB Data & Insights
David vs. Goliath: Rookie Schlittler Faces Scherzer as Yanks Battle Jays
It is a classic David vs. Goliath matchup on the pitcher’s mound in Toronto on Tuesday night. A rookie making his second career start will face a three-time Cy Young Award winner as the slumping New York Yankees try to snap the red-hot Toronto Blue Jays’ 11-game home winning streak.
A “Stable” Group in Toronto
The Blue Jays are playing with supreme confidence. After their 4-1 victory in the series opener on Monday, they have extended their division lead over the Yankees to four games. The team is playing clean, fundamental baseball and finding ways to win every night.
“We’ve shown to be resilient,” manager John Schneider said of his club. “They’re pretty well-versed in just saying, ‘OK, what’s important right now?’ It’s nice that they are a very stable group.”
A Frustrating Month for New York
While the Blue Jays are surging, the Yankees are in a month-long funk. Monday’s loss was defined by sloppy play, including two costly errors and five walks from their starting pitcher.
“I’m concerned about us playing well and getting consistent, where it’s been a month now where we have not been at our best,” a frustrated manager Aaron Boone said. “We need to, obviously, start playing better consistently.”
A Duel of Opposites
Tuesday’s pitching matchup is a tale of two opposite ends of the experience spectrum. The Blue Jays will start their 40-year-old future Hall of Famer, Max Scherzer (1-0, 4.70 ERA), who will be making his 463rd career start.
The Yankees will counter with rookie Cam Schlittler (1-0, 5.06 ERA), who will be making just his second career start. This massive mismatch on paper will be the top story on the scores and odds board.
