Peralta picked up the win in his 2017 debut, tossing five shutout innings against the Rockies last Wednesday. He struck out five while allowing three hits and a walk over his five frames. It took Peralta 90 pitches to get through 18 batters but a win is a win and he took advantage of a Colorado offense that thus far, is sleepwalking through April.
Happ took the loss last Wednesday as the Blue Jays fell 3-1 to the Orioles. He allowed three runs on five hits while striking out nine over seven innings of work. Toronto’s bats were silent and it cost Happ a chance to pick up a win while he was effective. He threw 65 of 89 pitches for strikes, but unfortunately two of the five hits he allowed left the yard.
