Trevor Rogers (2-9, 4.53 ERA) vs. Taj Bradley (6-4, 2.43 ERA)
Trevor Rogers of the Miami Marlins has endured an inconsistent and trying start to his season, posting only 2-9 wins-losses and a 4.53 earned run average in 105.1 innings pitched. Rogers has permitted 115 hits while striking out 85 batters against 46 walk-throughs for 46 walks received and giving up 12 homers; yet has shown resilience by finding ways to comeback when things got rough; particularly his fastball and changeup that keeps opposing batters off balance; although his high WHIP of 1.53 could play into these decisions significantly in this match-up; even so, Rogers may find ways of rebound from difficult situations when facing tougher opponents on other fronts; which could impact this matchup greatly;
Taj Bradley has been one of the Tampa Bay Rays’ standout performers this season, boasting an outstanding 6-4 win-loss record and 2.43 ERA that stands out. In 81.1 innings pitched he gave up only 55 hits while striking out 97 batters while walking 27 and maintaining an excellent 1.01 WHIP which allowed for maximum control during games while limiting scoring opportunities from opponents. Bradley credits both his devastating slider and effective curveball as factors contributing to his success this season.
