Touki Toussaint Could See More Starts This Season
3 years agoAtlanta Braves right-hander Touki Toussaint may start some more games this season while also pitching out of the pen, according to David O'Brien of The Athletic. The Braves activated starter Ian Anderson on Sunday, leaving Toussaint as the odd man out of the rotation. Manager Brian Snitker said he would be the pitcher they use as a sixth starter if they have a long stretch of games without a day off. Toussaint has been solid this season, posting a 3.60 ERA with 40 K and 15 BB across 40 IP and seven starts. When he does get the nod, he could be a good streaming option pitching for a good team while providing strikeout upside.
