Braves Probable Pitchers

Margevicius generally boasts pinpoint command, and he had only walked more than two hitters in a game once before in his pro career. He walked five on Tuesday, but Seattle still couldn't square him up. The Padres have won three of his five starts this season.

Coming off a career-high 109-pitch effort, Soroka will attempt to further distance himself from his previous shoulder issues. His two-seam fastball has been quite effective, as he's allowed just one run in both of his first two starts this season.

The righty is coming off a masterful seven-inning, one-hit performance against Seattle in his last start, which solidified his rank among the MLB leaders in ERA.

If Teheran can extend the success he had with his two-seam fastball, he may have more consistent success against left-handers. Control continues to be a concern, as his walk rate (4.8 BB per 9) is higher than the elevated rates that he produced both of the previous two seasons.

The 2016 first-round Draft pick, and son of former big leaguer Paul Quantrill, is slated for his debut Wednesday night. He was roughed up in his first start in '19, but since then, he's posted a 2.86 ERA with a strikeout per inning over four starts.

Fried surrendered a season-high four runs his last time out, but he continued to impress with his fastball and curveball. If he continues to make strides with his slider, he should see his strikeout rate climb.

Strahm continues to build up strength as a starter, racking up a career-high eight strikeouts in his last outing. He's registered an ERA of 1.50 over his last four starts.

Foltynewicz surrendered a pair of solo homers, and then faded during the seventh inning of Saturday's season debut. The All-Star hurler missed most of Spring Training because of a bone spur in his right elbow.

Gausman will have a chance to get back on track after allowing five earned runs in both of his past two outings. The right-hander dominated the Marlins over seven scoreless innings in his season debut on April 5.

For the first time since Aug. 15, 2018, Urena faces the Braves. On that night, the right-hander was ejected and later suspended for hitting Ronald Acuna Jr. with a pitch. In his past three starts, Urena is 1-1 with a 2.25 ERA.
