The Braves won a thriller on Friday night, getting manhandled by Shohei Ohtani until crushing him the third time through the order en route to an 8-1 laugher. In that game, Charlie Morton had quite a disconnect between his inputs (83 FIP-, 106 xFIP-) and his outputs (zero runs in six innings). On Saturday, the Braves will tab Kyle Wright to make his 19th start of the year, and lately, Wright has been no stranger to less-than-deserved outputs.
Through his first 13 starts of the year, Wright mostly dominated: 70 ERA-, 69 FIP-, 79 xFIP-. In those 13 starts, he only had four with an xFIP- above 100, and only three with an FIP- or ERA- above 100.
