The biggest pitcher mismatch today is in favor of the Toronto Blue Jays. Zack Greinke is nearing the end of his career and it is beginning to show. Greinke comes into today with a 3-5 record paired with a 4.52 ERA. Unfortunately, the worst has yet to come for Zack. With an xERA of 5.51 that ranks him in the bottom 8% of the league.
A big contributor to this is his 4-seam fastball. Throwing it over 34% of the time has allowed hitters to hit for a respectable .273 average. Now as bad as that is, it is still due for some regression. His 4-seam fastball holds an xBA of .360 which makes his most thrown pitch, one of the worst fastballs in baseball.
The Blue Jays are coming off an embarrassing loss and will look to get back on track as the all-star break approaches.
