Probable Pitchers for Thursday, June 4
Gil Meche (KC) @ James Shields (TB)
Maybe his good outing against the White Sox is a sign that his back is getting better but I’ll wait until I know he’s absolutely healthy.
Brandon McCarthy (TEX) @ CC Sabathia (NYY)
Carlos Zambrano (CHC) @ Jair Jurrjens (ATL)
Dave Bush (MIL) @ Josh Johnson (FLA)
Tim Redding (NYM) @ Jeff Karstens (PIT)
John Lackey (LAA) @ Brian Tallet (TOR)
Tallet’s last 6 games were all quality starts. In 39 innings he gave up 13 earned runs (3.00 ERA) and has a WHIP of 1.08.
Brett Anderson (OAK) @ Mark Buehrle (CWS)
Jason Hammel (COL) @ Wandy Rodriguez (HOU)
Tim Wakefield (BOS) @ Dontrelle Willis (DET)
Even though both teams have not been batting well lately I don’t see either pitcher shine here.
Fausto Carmona (CLE) @ Scott Baker (MIN)
Matt Cain (SF) @ Ross Detweiler (WAS)
Aaron Harang (CIN) @ Chris Carpenter (STL)
Cole Hamels (PHI) @ Clayton Kershaw (LAD)
It’s very risky to start Kershaw. The Phillies are batting tremendously on the road but you can’t ignore Kershaw’s 1.13 ERA at home, where hitters are batting .159 against him.
