Keuchel, who spent eight months on the free-agent market before signing a one-year, $13 million deal with the Braves on June 7, will make his debut. The 2015 American League Cy Young Award winner has made two Minor League starts since signing. But he spent the past couple months training and throwing simulated games in California.

Strasburg will be aiming to turn the page from a clunker in his last outing, when he allowed four homers (matching a career high) and six earned runs. He allowed two runs over seven innings vs. the Braves on May 28, while matching a season high with 11 strikeouts.

Foltynewicz halted his home run woes against the Phillies on Sunday and will now attempt to extend his success against the Nationals. He has already allowed 15 home runs this season, two shy of the total he surrendered over 183 innings last year.
RHP
3-6, 4.02 ERA, 65 SO
Since he made his return from the injured list against the Braves on May 29 in Atlanta, Sanchez has been a different pitcher. In four starts, he owns a 1.54 ERA with 18 strikeouts and three walks. Opponents are hitting just .183 against him during that span.

Soroka may have allowed more than one earned run in both of his past two starts, but he’s only done that a total of three times this season and is still a strong All-Star candidate. The rookie has struggled with his slider in his past two starts.
RHP
0-0, 3.00 ERA, 7 SO
Voth will be promoted from Triple-A Fresno to make a spot start on Sunday, making his first Major League appearance of the year. In 12 starts at Fresno this season, he has posted a 4.40 ERA and improved his K/9 rate to 10.0

5-6, 3.94 ERA, 81 SO
Teheran posted a 0.81 ERA over an eight-start stretch before allowing a season-high eight hits, including his first homer since April 30, over four innings against the Mets last week. A much more effective two-seamer has aided his improvement.
LHP
7-5, 3.83 ERA, 82 SO
Lester picked up a win Wednesday behind a gutsy 114-pitch outing (5 2/3 innings, three runs, six strikeouts, one walk) vs. the White Sox. The veteran lefty has a 7.17 ERA in his last seven outings.

9-3, 3.96 ERA, 84 SO
Fried has not matched his early-season dominance, but he displayed a more effective curveball during his last start. The young lefty allowed just one hit over six scoreless innings against the Cubs on April 4.
RHP
1-0, 2.08 ERA, 9 SO
In his MLB debut on Thursday, Alzolay spun four innings in relief, allowing one run on a homer while finishing with five strikeouts. In his last five starts in Triple-A, the righty had a 1.93 ERA with 40 strikeouts vs. three walks in 28 innings.
