Besides the Sale-deGrom partial match-up, there's Verlander/Greinke.

Kershaw-Freeland.

Scherzer-deGrom; definite Cy Young implications.

Freeland? I should stick with actual marquee match-ups.

Well played, Hyun-jin Ryu.

Scherzer-Verlander! I rarely root against either of them, but I want the Astros to win 1-0 tonight. (The game is free on mlb.com.)

I want anyone but the Astros to win.
I have to admit, I have been very impressed with Altuve lately.

Realistically, I think any Jays fan assumes Texas will be easier to stay ahead of.
How's this for complicated wording?
Justin Verlander & Max Scherzer will be the 1st former Cy Young winners to be teammates earlier in a season and THEN face each other later in that season, with both pitching for different teams than where they were teammatesh/t @EliasSports pic.twitter.com/M86VZcw9tm— Sarah Langs (@SlangsOnSports) September 6, 2023

I'm not sure the last bit is even necessary--I would think "1st former Cy Young winners to be teammates earlier in a season and THEN face each other later in that season" would be enough.

So much for that--Scherzer's getting hammered.

from reddit:
This was the 19th straight Rangers game without a starting pitcher W. The last time their starter recorded a win was August 15.

Cole vs Burnes yesterday did not disappoint.

Verlander-Castillo, and two nose-diving teams trying to hang on.
