MLB Probable Pitchers for Thursday, August 18 (Who's Starting for Every MLB Team Today?)
By Ben Heisler
There's 11 Major League games on Thursday's docket, with just over half taking place as a getaway game in the early to mid-afternoon before five more later in the evening.
Perhaps the most noteworthy of all the early games is in Milwaukee, as last year's National League Cy Young award winner Corbin Burnes is a rare underdog at home against left-hander Andrew Heaney and the L.A. Dodgers.
Later that night, two AL East teams coming off big wins on Wednesday battle in the Bronx when the Toronto Blue Jays take on the New York Yankees. José Berríos makes his 24th start of the season against newcomer Frankie Montas; making his third start in a Yankees uniform since being acquired at the MLB Trade Deadline.
Then in the NL East, two of the best arms in baseball collide in Atlanta when Jacob deGrom and the New York Mets face Max Fried and the Atlanta Braves.
