Probable Pitchers for Monday, August 17
Brian Bannister (KC) @ Mark Buehrle (CWS)
Buehrle seems to be back on track after another scoreless outing over 8 innings. The Royals are batting .253 on their current road trip.
Ervin Santana (LAA) @ David Hernandez (BAL)
Carlos Villanueva (MIL) @ Kevin Hart (PIT)
Joe Martinez (SF) @ Livan Hernandez (NYM)
Francisco Liriano (MIN) @ Tommy Hunter (TEX)
In 9 starts Tommy Hunter has accumulated some impressive stats, especially when you look at some sabermetrics, but here is why I’d be nervous if I started him: In their last 8 games the Twins are batting .326. Besides, this is Rangers Ballpark where he gave up all of his 4 home runs.
A.J. Burnett (NYY) @ Vin Mazzaro (OAK)
Ted Lilly (CHC) @ Kevin Correia (SD)
Chris Carpenter (STL) @ Charlie Haeger (LAD)
Max Scherzer (ARI) @ Tommy Hanson (ATL)
