Blackburn is making his season debut after dealing with a cracked fingernail and then a blister. He struggled in his 6 minor league starts and topped out at 73 pitches in his most recent start, so we could see him on a 75-80 pitch count. He has a ton of downside here and could get knocked out early due to getting shelled or having a minor setback. His K rate was a bit higher than usual last season thanks to a career low 58% chase contact and 65% zone swing%. The Braves swing at pitches in the zone at the highest rate, have the 8th highest chase contact%, and crush his 3 main pitches (sinker, cutter, curve). Projecting this closer to -150 and there is a ton of downside baked in.
