Chris Sale looks to build off of his best start of 2019 in a favorable matchup against the Orioles, with Clayton Kershaw and Jack Flaherty joining him as the day's top options.
Ian Happ has cut down his strikeout rate and should return to CHC in short order. Plus, outfielders who have impressed in MIL and PIT, early struggles for Matt Carpenter in STL, and Josh VanMeter's call-up in CIN.
With light-hitting Adam Engel dispatched to the minors and Eloy Jimenez still injured, Chicago's OF consists of Garcia, Delmonico and Cordell. Plus, VanMeter called up, M. Adams and Wingenter hit IL, and Mets swap a pair of pitchers.
