At Nationals Park
TV: MASN, ATT SportsNet-RM
Peter Lambert
RHP
2-1, 5.85 ERA, 29 SO

Stephen Strasburg
RHP
12-4, 3.39 ERA, 158 SO
Although his last start made waves for his hitting (and dancing) ability, Strasburg is also in the midst of a five-game winning streak on the mound, tied for the second longest of his career, behind a six-game win streak from May 20-June 20, 2012.

At PNC Park
TV: FS-M, ATT SportsNet-PIT
Dakota Hudson
RHP
9-4, 3.66 ERA, 80 SO
Hudson worked his way out of traffic on the bases Thursday against the Reds en route to his team-leading ninth win of the season. He limited the Reds' damage to three runs in his five innings, walking two and striking out three.
Chris Archer
RHP
3-6, 5.46 ERA, 111 SO
Archer has pitched better since the All-Star break, racking up 18 strikeouts with only four walks in 12 innings over a pair of quality starts, but he'll be looking for his first win since June 6 as he faces the Cardinals for the second time in a row.

At Rogers Centre

Trevor Bauer
RHP
9-7, 3.53 ERA, 177 SO
After his previous outing, Bauer said it was the maddest he'd been in two months. He gave up three runs on two homers, explaining that his frustration was about not being able to keep the ball in the park against the Tigers, as the right-hander logged 6 2/3 frames with 10 strikeouts.
Aaron Sanchez
RHP
3-14, 6.06 ERA, 89 SO
Sanchez continues to search for his old form, but there haven’t been many answers in 2019. The right-hander allowed four runs in five innings his last time out against the Red Sox, but he did manage to limit his walk total to one, which was a season low.

TV: NESN, Fox Sports Sun
Chris Sale
LHP
4-9, 4.04 ERA, 181 SO

Aaron Nola
RHP
8-2, 3.68 ERA, 141 SO

Matthew Boyd
LHP
6-8, 4.17 ERA, 165 SO
A week from the Trade Deadline, Boyd makes what could be his last home start as a member of the Tigers against one of the contenders that could use him in the Phillies. He has given up at least four runs in each of his last six outings despite 55 strikeouts in 35 1/3 innings.

Merrill Kelly
RHP
7-9, 3.77 ERA, 92 SO
