The Almanac's Take

Two-game Saturday slate, and projections are essentially empty — no IP, K, or ER lines for either arm, so the grid below is running on season ERA alone. Troy Melton's 2.81 ERA facing Chicago is the better number on paper, and the White Sox are a soft draw, but without projected volume or matchup scores there's no real edge to size off of. Will Warren at 3.34 ERA gets Cincinnati, which is a harder ask. Treat both starters as incomplete profiles today — season ERA is context, not a signal.
