Have no fear, though, because a normal-sized slate is on the schedule for Friday.

Today’s Slate
Full Friday MLB slate
It’s an action-packed slate on Friday in baseball as the action starts early on and continues through the night. The biggest news of the day is Alek Manoah returning to the Major Leagues. Don’t miss our MLB predictions.
Wimbledon continues on Friday
Across the pond, one of the biggest Tennis tournaments of the season is underway. There has been plenty of rain so far, but Friday should bring plenty of exciting matchups throughout the day. Here are our Wimbledon Day 5 best bets.
Best Bet of the Day
MLB: Detroit Tigers ML (+126) over Toronto Blue Jays
6:40 pm ET
Welcome back, Alek Manoah. Toronto’s Opening Day starter had one of the worst starts to a season you could possibly imagine and it eventually cost him his job. Manoah had a 6.36 ERA and a 6.85 xERA after 13 starts, but it gets worse. In those 58 innings, Manoah ranked in the 9th percentile in xBA and xSLG, 3rd percentile in walk rate, 14th percentile in strikeout rate and, well, you get the idea. After allowing 6 runs and 7 hits in just 0.1 innings to the Astros, Manoah was sent down. But not to Triple-A, or even Double-A, or even Single-A! He was sent all the way down to the Florida Gulf Coast League. In that outing against a bunch of 19-year-olds, Manoah was shelled for 11 runs and 10 hits in 2.2 innings.

Stat of the Day

Quote of the Day
“I love the way he plays the Game, but I didn’t like his antics after he hit the home run. We can do without that. He’s only got two weeks in the big leagues. But he’s gonna be a good player.”
— Washington Nationals manager Dave Martinez after Elly De La Cruz’s home run in Wednesday night’s game.
