Let’s look at these Saturday lineups.
An impressive walk-off from a line-drive RBI single from Chadwick Tromp ended yesterday’s game one matchup against the Nationals in extras. Now, appearing in the starting lineup for tonight’s matchup, the Braves are looking for him to have another productive outing with Grant Holmes on the mound. Mike Yastrzemski and Mauricio Dubón are also making a return to join Tromp at the bottom of the batting order.
So far, the only player on the squad to average over a 1. 000 OPS against Washington’s pitcher Jake Irvin is Ronald Acuña Jr. However, Michael Harris II, who’s moved back up to the second slot, and Matt Olson, batting behind him, have seen numbers passing a .
800 OPS to take their bases comfortably against the righty. On the Nationals’ side, James Wood is the only player who has produced well against Holmes, averaging a 1. 666 OPS against him.
