DAILY MATCHUPS: Woodruff rounding into peak form

Today's Overview/Schedule/Weather: There are 15 games on this Monday, with first pitch coming at 1:05pm ET when the Phillies host the Braves in the first game of a double header. Weather could impact a number of games along the East Coast, while the Royals-White Sox game in Chicago also has a high chance of seeing rain.

 

Notable Starts:

Brandon Woodruff missed four months of the season with a shoulder injury. He has made six starts since returning with half of those resulting in a PQS-DOM, including his last two. Across those six recent starts, he is limiting right-handed batters to a lowly .102 BA and .453 OPS. He has had long standing success pitching at home, where in 56 career starts he owns a 2.91 ERA and 1.00 WHIP.
