Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers

Streaking: Caleb Smith, Miami Marlins (2-4, 3.63 ERA, $-101)

In a year we never thought we'd see a Marlins' starting pitcher appearing as our Streaking Starter, Caleb Smith gets the spot today and is the second member of Miami's rotation to hold this elite position - "Jarlin the Marlin" made the cut a couple of weeks ago.

Over his last three starts, Smith is 2-1, owns an ERA of 1.00, a WHIP of 0.89, and an opponent's on-base percentage of .235. It's a slow day for streaking starters, but these numbers are legit.

Smith gets the start at home as a +140 underdog against Kenta Maeda and the struggling Los Angeles Dodgers in today's lone afternoon affair.

Slumping: Andrew Triggs, Oakland Athletics (3-1, 5.31 ERA, $191)

Andrew Triggs has been OK so far this season. Not great, not horrible. We'll focus on his recent performances on the road for this spot. In his last two away appearances he owns a team win/loss of 0-2, an ERA of 10.00, a WHIP of 2.1111, and he has allowed four home runs over nine innings of work.

Triggs gets the ball on the road in Toronto today as a +115 underdog against Aaron Sanchez and the Jays.

Thursday's Top Trends

* Dodgers are 1-10 in their last 11 games vs. a team with a winning % below .400. -140 today at Marlins.
* Over is 7-0-1 in Chad Kuhl's last eight starts overall. Padres/Pirates total: 8.
* Athletics are 3-13 in their last 16 games at Rogers Centre in Toronto. +110 today at Blue Jays.
* Phillies are 10-1 in their last 11 vs. National League Central. +125 today at Cardinals.
* White Sox are 1-8 in their last 9 vs. American League West. +115 today vs. Rangers.
* Tigers are 0-7 in Matthew Boyd's last seven road starts. +165 today at Mariners.

Weather Watch

The only game that could potentially be impacted by weather is in Atlanta where the Braves are hosting the Cubs in the final game of their busy head-to-head week. There is expected to be thunderstorms in Georgia this evening with a 50-60 percent chance of rain at SunTrust Park. The Cubs are slight -115 road favorites tonight.
