Houston is 3-4 in those games, dropping two of Backe's last three away from home as well. He is 3-6 in 13 road starts with a 4.50 ERA after walking away with a no-decision in an eventual 6-4 loss at Milwaukee on July 26. Backe is 2-2 lifetime vs. Chicago with a 4.75 ERA.

Cubs (-190, O/U 10): Jason Marquis could be on the verge of losing his spot in the starting rotation if he continues to pitch poorly. Chicago is 2-4 in Marquis' last six starts, including 2-2 at home, where he is 3-4 with an inflated 5.68 ERA. The Cubs did not score a run for him in his last outing against Pittsburgh on Friday, as he gave up all three runs in six innings of a 3-0 loss.

Florida Marlins at Philadelphia Phillies [7:05 PM ET]

Marlins: Anibal Sanchez makes his second start of the season and first on the road against a team he has struggled against in two career starts. Sanchez missed most of last season and the first first few months of this season due to a shoulder injury after throwing a no-hitter as a rookie in 2006. He gave up two runs and six hits in 5.2 innings of a 12-2 victory on Thursday in his first start and is 0-1 lifetime vs. Philadelphia with a 10.61 ERA.

However, he has rebounded in his last two starts, allowing three runs in 12.2 innings with three walks and six strikeouts. Kendrick is 3-3 in 10 home starts with a 4.33 ERA.

Ponson allowed just two hits in seven scoreless innings against the Angels on Friday, but New York did not score a run and gave up one in the top of the ninth for a 1-0 loss. He will be facing his former team for the second time in six starts after giving up seven runs and nine hits in five innings of an 18-7 victory back on July 2. Ponson is 3-2 in five road starts with a 4.06 ERA, and opponents are hitting .315 against him away from home.

He walked two and struck out four in his major-league debut, as the Rangers scored three times in the bottom of the ninth inning to pull off the win.

Rangers are 8-21 in the last 29 meetings at Texas.
The OVER is 11-2-1 in Texas' last 14 games overall.
