PROBABLE PITCHING MATCHUP
New York — RHP Luis Severino (1–3, 4.91 ERA, 1.39 WHIP)
Severino has been inconsistent, flashing ace‑level innings but struggling with command and home‑run prevention. His slider has been sharp, but fastball location remains a concern.
Los Angeles — RHP Chase Silseth (2–2, 4.22 ERA, 1.31 WHIP)
Silseth has taken a step forward in 2026. Improved strikeout rate, better pitch sequencing, and strong home splits. Still vulnerable to left‑handed power.
Pitching Edge: Slight to Angels (Silseth’s consistency + home performance).
