Steven Matz Will Be Challenged in Next Start Saturday rotoballer.com Fri 4/5/19 10:27 AM

New York Mets southpaw Steven Matz faces a difficult matchup against the Washington Nationals on Saturday at Citi Field. Matz struggled against the Nationals last year, posting an 0-3 record with a 5.88 ERA in six starts. The lefty typically has a distinct platoon advantage when facing a lefty-heavy lineup. The Nationals, however, have plenty of right-handed bats to send to the plate against Matz. Consider leaving Matz on the bench for this matchup on Saturday.
