M.Gore o15.5 Outs-105

He’s over in 6/10 starts including 3/L3. Actually has pitched well against the current Braves roster (they are 7/44 against him - it was Acuna he struggled with), and the Braves are just not hitting right now: 100 wRC+ and .700 OPS vs lefties over the L30 days. Gore can be a bit wild, but the Braves swing a ton, with the 7th highest chase rate and third highest swing rate overall.
