Sunday's Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers
By Covers.com
STREAKING
Hiroki Kuroda, New York Yankees (10-7, 3.34 ERA)
Kuroda’s last start was overshadowed by the acquisition of fellow Japanese star Ichiro Suzuki, but certainly not forgotten by bettors. The righty helped snap the Yankees’ season-long four-game losing skid, allowing one run on three hits over seven innings against the Mariners Monday. Hiroki hasn’t been tagged with a loss since June 19, a span of six starts.
Paul Maholm, Chicago Cubs (9-6, 3.88 ERA)
It’s not often we get to talk about a Chicago Cubs pitcher that’s on a hot streak, besides Ryan Dempster. Maholm hasn’t allowed more than one earned run in each of his last six starts and has lowered his ERA from 5.38 to 3.88 in just over a month. The lefty has also picked up wins in five of his last six outings.
SLUMPING
James McDonald, Pittsburgh Pirates (10-4, 3.15 ERA)
There’s no doubt that McDonald is the stud of the Pirates’ pitching staff, but he’s struggled in his last three starts - squandering 15 earned runs in 15 2-3 innings to the Cubs, Rockies and Brewers. He’ll have a chance to rebound against the lowly Astros Sunday.
Jonathan Sanchez, Colorado Rockies (0-1, 11.25 ERA)
A change of scenery hasn’t been enough to change Jonathan Sanchez’s fortunes. In his first start since being acquired by the Rockies, he surrendered five earned runs in just four innings against the Diamondbacks. It’s been a nightmare season for Sanchez and now he has the challenge of pitching at high altitude in his next outing against the high-powered Reds. His last win came against the Angels way back on April 9.
Sunday Night Baseball: Red Sox at Yankees

Boston Red Sox at New York Yankees (-166)
The Yankees host the Red Sox for the finale of a three-game series on Sunday Night Baseball.
FELIX THE CAT
Felix Doubront gets the call for Boston. This will be his third look at the Yankees this season. Way back on April 21, the southpaw allowed just one run and four hits over six innings; Boston lost that game 15-9. His most recent attempt at beating the Yankees was on July 7. In that game, Doubront gave up four runs and four hits in just over six innings of work. Boston won that game 9-5. Doubront has been the beneficiary of a lot of run support as the Red Sox have scored six runs or more for him in six of his last nine outings. Doubront has been alternating good starts and bad starts over his last four outings.
KURODA THE KID
Hiroki Kuroda's first season in the American League has gone well. The righty is 10-7 with a 3.34 ERA and 103 strikeouts to just 34 walks. He has faced the Red Sox just once this season back on July 6. The righty allowed seven runs and 10 hits in 5 2-3 innings, but he got a no-decision in New York’s 10-8 win. Kuroda has been spectacular as of late allowing two runs or less in eight of his last 11 starts. At home, Kuroda has been lights out. He has given up just 15 earned runs in his last eight home starts. Kuroda has also shown great control walking more than three batters just once.
INJURY BUG
Both teams are not at full strength. The Yankees are without Mariano Rivera, Alex Rodriguez, Brett Gardner, Joba Chamberlain, and Andy Pettitte. Only Rodriguez and Pettitte are expected back this season. New York did acquire Ichiro Suzuki to fill in for Gardner. Boston is without David Ortiz, Daisuke Matsuzaka, Andrew Bailey, and John Lackey.
TRENDS
Red Sox are 5-1 Over in their last six Sunday games
Red Sox are 7-2 in Doubront's last nine road starts
Yankees are 42-20 in their last 62 Sunday games
Yankees are 10-3 Under in Kuroda’s last 13 starts
HITTERS TO WATCH
Cody Ross 5-for-22 vs. Kuroda
Adrian Gonzalez 8-for-26 vs. Kuroda
Curtis Granderson 2-for-8 vs. Doubront
Robinson Cano 0-for-7 vs. Doubront

St Louis Cardinals at Chicago Cubs
When Paul Maholm (9-6, 3.88 ERA) and Chicago Cubs take on Adam Wainwright (8-10, 4.31 ERA) and the St Louis Cardinals in a rubber match at Wrigley Field Sunday afternoon both hurlers will be trying to halt series slides. Maholm is 0-1 (0-2 TSR) in two starts vs Cardinals this season both at Busch Stadium where the southpaw gave up 10 runs over 10 innings of work. Wainwright is also 0-1 (0-2 TSR) on the campaign vs division rival Cubs with the righty taking a beating on April 13th in St Louis allowing 8 runs over 3.0 innings of work then tagged with a ND in this ballpark on April 24th giving up 1 run over 6.0 innings. Maholm on a roll posting five straight W's allowing 1 run or less in each start and on a solid 6-2 stretch over seven starts at home (6-3 TSR) should pick up a rare victory over Cardinals while Wainwright just 3-5 in 9 starts on the road (3-6 TSR) waits another day. Look for Cubbies to move to 7-3 at home last ten rubber matches and Cardinals to fall to 0-2 on the road this season with Wainwright after splitting the first two games of a three game series.
Cincinnati Reds at Colorado Rockies
The Cincinnati Reds made it nine straight wins with it's 9-7 victory over Colorado Saturday. Reds 13-2 (+$1046) since the All-Star break platting 4.5 runs/game look primed to make it ten consecutive while ending this six game road swing a perfect 6-0. Reds have Mat Latos (8-3, 4.30 ERA) scheduled and although he is questionable for Sunday (sprained ankle) no matter who Reds send to the mound it'll be a sight better than Rockies Jonathan Sanchez. The left-handed slug acquired for Royals recorded a loss in his debut with Rockies heads to the bump 1-11 (5-15) his last twenty starts. Rockies 2-7 this July at Coors Filed, 5-16 last twenty-one at home, 7-23 last thirty as home dogs will be hard pressed halting Reds amazing run.
