Syndergaard still yet to pick up a win on the road
Noah Syndergaard's numbers may look good at a quick glace, but the rookie right-hander has struggled on the road. In seven road starts this season, Syndergaard is 0-4 with a 4.34 ERA whilw allowing opponents to bat .268.
Syndergaard has allowed eight more earned runs on the road (18) compared to at Citi Field (10) despite pitching fewer games on foreign mounds.
The New York Mets are 1-6 in Syndergaarrd's road starts this season.
The Mets are currently -113 when visit the Tampa Bay Rays Saturday.
Mariners winless in Montgomery's past five starts
Mike Montgomery's recent struggles on the mound have translated to losses for the Seattle Mariners, with the M's dropping his past five starts.
Montgomery has given up 17 earned runs in his past five starts, including an abysmal six earned runs in 2.2 innings on July 22.
It is not all the lefties fault as the Mariners have given Montgomery three runs of support a game.
The Mariners are currently -130 when they host the Texas Rangers Saturday.
Six consecutive wins for Pirates when Liriano starts
The Pittsburgh Pirates have won their past six games when Francisco Liriano takes to the mound, with the June 20 being the last time they lost in the situation.
Through those six games, Liriano has pitched 38.0 innings while only given up nine earned runs versus 35 registered strikeouts.
The Bucs have also been giving Liriano some solid run support, as they have averaged 6.2 runs during Liriano's past six starts.
The Pirates will host the LA Dodgers Saturday.
Giants place RHP Leake on DL
The San Francisco Giants placed right-hander Mike Leake on the 15-day disabled list Friday.
The Giants recalled left-hander Josh Osich from Triple-A Sacramento.
Leake had been scratched from his start against the Chicago Cubs on Friday due to a strained left hamstring. He threw before the game to test the hamstring.
"We decided to go ahead and put him on the disabled list and give him the full 15 days to make sure he's fully recovered," manager Bruce Bochy said. "It's not worth the risk to try to get him ready for the next start."
