Tuesday's Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers
By Covers.com
Streaking
Justin Masterson, Cleveland Indians (4-6, 3.98 ERA)
Masterson has been dynamite in his last two outings, allowing just one unearned run in his last 16 innings on the hill. He threw the fourth complete game of his career last week, limiting the Reds to three hits and that one unearned run while walking none. Masterson has 18 strikeouts in his last two starts, turning it around after the Indians had dropped six of his last seven.
Gio Gonzalez, Washington Nationals (9-3, 2.55 ERA)
Gonzalez has won seven of his last nine and hasn’t allowed more than three earned runs in an outing since his first start of the season. In his last turn, he labored early, needing 50 pitches to get through the first two innings against Tampa Bay. After that he went on to fire six innings of two-run ball, striking out four and walking two.
Slumping
Carlos Zambrano, Miami Marlins (4-5, 4.01 ERA)
Zambrano continues to struggle with his control and Miami has lost his last three starts. He was a little better last week against Boston, allowing three runs over five innings, but still walked four. Big Z now has 13 walks during the three-game skid and 42 free passes to first in 83 innings this year for Miami.
Liam Hendriks, Minnesota Twins (0-4, 7.39 ERA)
Hendriks gave up six runs (three earned) on eight hits in five innings during a 9-1 loss to the Pirates last week. It was his fourth consecutive loss and he’s allowed six home runs over that span. Dating back to last year, he is without a win in 10 starts and owns a 6.84 ERA.
MLB: Streaks, Tips, Notes

Arizona at Atlanta
When the Atlanta Braves hook Tim Hudson against D-Backs' Daniel Hudson in the first of this four game set at Turner Field they do so with conditions on their side. Tim Hudson is undefeated life-time vs D-Backs' (6-0, 1.36 ERA) with a sparkling 7-1 TSR over eight starts. On the other mound, Daniel Hudson sporting a 11.37 ERA his last three on the hill is 0-1 vs Braves with a 6.00 ERA. Look for Braves to make it 5-0 as host in the series, 21-8 as a home favorite of -110 to -150 w/Tim Hudson.
Washington at Colorado
The Washington Nationals 3.5 games ahead of Atlanta/Mets in the NL East look to pad their lead with a victory over Rockies when the two clubs meet in the second of this four game set. The Nationals and Stephen Strasburg unable to top Rockies in the opener falling 4-2 should feel pretty good about their chances in this one handing the ball to Gio Gonzales (9-3, 2.55 ERA). Nats are on a 4-1 streak in game-two of a series with Gonzalez, 6-1 on the road with the lefty. If that were not enough, the southpaw allowing two earned on seven hits over six innings in a win over Rays last time out is on a smart 11-3 team start stretch (Nats, A's) following a quality start (=>6 inn =<3 runs) including a sparkling 7-1 TSR on the highway. On the flip side, there is very little to be positive for Rockies and their hurler Friedrich (4-4, 5.65 ERA). He's on a 0-3 skid with a whopping 8.40 ERA smacked for 6 yard-ball, 16 runs over 15.0 innings of work. Play on Washington as Colorado extends it's skid to 1-6 facing a southpaw starter, 7-16 in June, 3-8 at Coors Field.
