I'm still not sold on Liriano but the Yankees are batting just .199 in their last 5 games.
Mitch Talbot (CLE) @ Brian Matusz (BAL)
Rodrigo Lopez (ARI) @ Tommy Hanson (ATL) Jason Vargas (SEA) @ James Shields (TB) Jake Peavy (CWS) @ Luke Hochevar (KC)
Paul Maholm (PIT) @ Ryan Dempster (CHC)
Scott Feldmann (TEX) @ Ricky Romero (TOR)
Luis Atilano (WAS) @ Jason Hammel (COL)
Justin Duchscherer (OAK) @ Ervin Santana (LAA)
I tend to play it safe regarding inconsistent pitchers but Big Erv owns the Athletics. In 17 games he is 10-2 with a 1.41 ERA.
Roy Oswalt (HOU) @ Tim Lincecum (SF) Jon Lester (BOS) @ Dontrelle Willis (DET)
Joe Blanton (PHI) @ Chris Narveson (MIL) Adam Wainwright (STL) @ Mike Leake (CIN) John Maine (NYM) @ Nate Robertson (FLA)
Maine had 3 quality starts in a row and lowered his ERA from 8.64 to 5.45. The Marlins are batting .212 in their last 10 games.
Yeah, Peavy has been good his last couple of times out.
I'm not sure how Liriano will do against the Yanks, but I am in need of K's this weekend, so I am thinking he will get me some strikeouts, even if he gets hit a little.
