Atlanta has lost three in a row and is 17-35 in interleague games versus winning teams. 22-year-old Touki Toussaint saw some time last year and looked raw, walking 21 in 29 innings. Toussaint had an 8.62 ERA in six spring appearances (15.2 innings) and gets thrown into the rotation on Friday. The Braves are 17-36 in interleague games against a right-handed starter and face Corey Kluber and a hot Cleveland squad. While Atlanta played yesterday (losing 4-1 at home with 16 strikeouts), the Indians had the day off following a long road trip. The Indians are 61-25 at home against a team with a losing road record, so back the rested home team. Play Cleveland.
