Schwellenbach surprise on Sunday?

Today's Overview/Schedule/Weather: All 30 teams are in action on Sunday, with Texas in Baltimore for the lone night game. Rain could be an issue there, and also in Boston for the Padres and Red Sox. Today's slate features a healthy number of strong start options, and at the top, two dominant pitchers looking to feast on weak opponents. 

 

Notable Starts:

Freddy Peralta is rated highly for his start against the Cubs, but looking at his month-by-month numbers, the trend has not been his friend: ERA (3.58, 4.08, 5.11); xERA (3.01, 3.62, 3.81); K-BB% (25%, 21%, 16%). That said, his June xERA and K-BB% are still pretty good, and the Cubs have been a bottom-ten offense on the year, so his overall outlook for this start is good… just maybe...

Almost!
