Things are heating up in the stretch run, and the individual pitching match-ups are heating up too. Here are 5 can’t-miss pitching matchups this week:
Cade Horton (Chicago Cubs) vs. Spencer Strider (Atlanta Braves) — Tuesday
This is a rookie vs. ace matchup. The Chicago Cubs put the ball in the hands of Cade Horton, who is one of the most exciting young arms in MLB. The Atlanta Braves will counter with Spencer Strider who is still known for ridiculous strikeout rates even in an up and down season.
