Blue Jays Opposing Pitcher Report: Julio Teheran
On Tuesday, July 10, the Blue Jays will play the first game of a quick two-game series against the Atlanta Braves. Atlanta will send young right-hander Julio Teheran to the mound. The Blue Jays plan to counter with their own young right-hander, Marcus Stroman.
Julio Teheran was once an exciting prospect for the Atlanta Braves. After a great 2016—when he posted a 3.21 ERA, 3.69 FIP, and 1.96 BB/9—the righty was pencilled in as a major piece in the rebuild. However, he was unable to follow up this all-star season in 2017. Instead, the pitcher posted a 4.49 ERA, 4.95 WHIP, and 3.4 BB/9.
