The set-up: Two teams which hope to be in the postseason collide in this National League contest on Thursday afternoon and with their respective "aces" getting the call, everything points to a low-scoring pitchers duel in my opinion.
The pitchers: Jacob deGrom gets the call for New York and last year he finished 10-9 with a 1.70 ERA. deGrom just signed a five-year 137.5 million dollar contract on Tuesday.
Max Scherzer gets the nod for the home side. Scherzer was 16-6 with a 2.51 ERA in 2017 and 18-7 with a 2.53 ERA in 2018. Scherzer struck out 12 in his final spring tune-up on Friday.
The pick: Throw the stats out the window on Opening Day. I expect these two hungry Cy Young winners to "steal the show" and to battle deep into the latter frames.
