3 years agoToronto Blue Jays pitcher Thomas Hatch will start for the Blue Jays on Tuesday against the Red Sox, according to Keegan Matheson of MLB.com. Hatch will take the mound in place of Alek Manoah, who landed on the injured list on Monday with a back injury. This will be Hatch's first appearance of 2021, but he has shown success in the majors before as he was 3-1 with a 2.73 ERA, 1.177 WHIP and 21.1 percent strikeout rate over 26 1/3 innings of work in 2020. He was used primarily as a reliever last season, but this year at Triple-A he's made eight starts where he has posted a 2.15 ERA, 1.057 WHIP and 24.2 percent strikeout rate over 29 1/3 innings of work. He could potentially be a guy to look at as a streaming option in deeper formats.--Michael Grennell - RotoBaller
