MLB
Sunday's streaking starting pitchers


HOT

Kyle Kendrick (Philadelphia Phillies) - Kendrick (6-3) is lighting it up at home, going 5-0 in eight home starts. He has a 3.46 ERA in that span and a 4.06 overall. He's displaying some rare late-season staying power having pitched into the seventh inning in five of his last six outings at Citizens Bank Park. The Phillies have played under in Kendrick's last six straight starts overall. Today's total is set at 11 ½ when the Phillies host the Padres.

Kelvim Escobar (Los Angeles Angels) - Escobar is back on track after dropping three straight games from July 24 to August 4. He looks to tally his fourth straight win when the Angels host the Blue Jays this afternoon as -164 favorites. The veteran righty is 14-6 overall with a 2.85 ERA and 8-3 in 13 starts at home.

COLD

David Wells (Los Angeles Dodgers) - The good news is Wells is still pitching. The bad news is he's bringing a disappointing losing skid to his new team. The 44-year-old Wells is 0-3 in his last four starts (14.33 ERA) with the Padres and 5-8 with a 5.54 ERA for the season. He makes his Los Angeles debut when the Dodgers play the Mets in New York tonight as +160 underdogs.

Vincente Padilla (Texas Rangers) - Padilla has three wins all season and only one in his last seven starts. He lasted just five innings Tuesday against the Orioles, allowing six runs and seven hits in the Rangers' loss. He has allowed 11 earned runs in two starts against the Mariners this season, both losses. Is there a bright side? The Rangers have played over in seven of Padilla's last nine starts. Today's total is set at 10 ½ when the Rangers host the M's tonight as +138 underdogs.

Write-up


Sunday, August 26


Week 3 preseason games are usually the ones where you get the most effort out of these teams. They're still exhibitions, however.

McNabb played real well last week, in '07 debut; Eagles lost two of last three years to Steelers in this Keystone State rivalry, with Philly losing last visit here, 38-31 in '05. Pittsburgh is playing its fourth summer game, beating reen Bay in other home game- they are just 4-3 in last seven summer home games. Eagles have best of the backup QB situation, with Feeley.
