Chris Paddack posted a 5.35 ERA across 158 innings in 2025, barely missed any bats, and was prone to the home run ball as opponents consistently squared him up. White Sox starter Davis Martin wasn't as bad in the ERA department (4.10), but he also failed to miss bats (17.3% strikeout rate) and sat just outside the Bottom 20 pitchers (min 140 innings) in barrel rate against with the 17th-highest hard-hit rate. This has all the makings of a high-scoring clash.

Back the A's to get their first win of the season after being swept by the Blue Jays in Toronto. The Braves' lack of rotation depth gets exposed with right-hander Bryce Elder toeing the rubber amid multiple injuries. Elder posted a 5.30 ERA in 156 1/3 innings in 2025 with a middling 19.3% strikeout rate. He should be just what Nick Kurtz, Lawrence Butler, and the A's need to get going.

Walker Buehler scares me, but the Giants offense doesn't. San Francisco scored one run in its opening three-game series against the Yankees, and I don't expect an immediate turnaround, even if the Giants can scratch across a couple runs off the veteran right-hander. Don't forget, the Padres still have one of baseball's most formidable bullpens. And Landen Roupp looked pretty sharp in 2025, with a 3.80 ERA across 106 2/3 innings with San Francisco.
