Tuesday's Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers
By Covers.com
Streaking
Stephen Strasburg, Washington Nationals (15-5, 2.85 ERA)
The Nationals are letting their young ace play out the rest of the regular season – for now. Some of that faith has to come from the fact that Miami hasn’t scored on Strasburg in 18 innings of action this season. The righty brings a four-game winning streak into Tuesday, giving up only four earned runs on 12 hits while striking out 29 batters in that span.
James Shields, Tampa Bay Rays (12-7, 4.01 ERA)
Shields is one of the hottest pitchers this month, posting a 3-0 mark and 2.83 ERA in four August appearances. The Rays right-hander has five straight quality starts heading into Tuesday’s tilt with Texas, which he owns a 6-2 career record against along with a 3.32 lifetime ERA.
Slumping
Ricky Romero, Toronto Blue Jays (8-11, 5.63 ERA)
Romero allowed five runs on seven hits while walking eight in a 5-3 loss to Detroit last Tuesday. The lefty is in a free fall, dropping 10 of his last 11 starts after beginning the campaign 8-1. His last win came in Miami on June 22.
Vance Worley, Philadelphia Phillies (6-9, 4.06 ERA)
The Phillies might be the hottest team in baseball right now, but Worley’s struggles continue. The young righty has dropped three of his last four outings, failing to go at least six innings in all but one of those starts. He hasn't been great versus the Mets for his short career, with a 3-3 record and 4.76 ERA against the NL East rival.
MLB: Streaks, Tips, Notes

Toronto Blue Jays at New York Yankees
Blue Birds halted a seven game slide Monday night defeating host N.Y. Yankees 8-7 in the opener of a three game set. Blue Jays winning for just the 4th time in 27 games hope to make it two in-a-row handing the ball to struggling Ricky Romero. Good Luck with that - Romero is on a career-high 10 game losing streak including 2 losses to the Yankees in which he got spanked for 9 runs over 13 innings of work. If that were not enough, Jays just 1-8 last nine trips into New York are on a 0-5 slide vs Bombers with Romero touching toe to rubber.
Atlanta Braves at San Diego Padres
San Diego Padres beating Atlanta Braves 3-0 Monday night look to extend their season-high eight game win streak handing the ball to left-hander Andrew Werner (1-0, 3.00 ERA) making just his second major league start. The southpaw won his ML debut against Pirates last Wednesday allowing 4 hits, 4 walks, 2 runs in six innings of work. Braves looking to stay atop the N.L. Wild-Card standings counter with Kris Medlen (5-1, 1.86 ERA). Braves will be feeling pretty good about their chances with the right-hander. Medlen has held the last two opponents scoreless including a complete game shutout of the Padres. Atlanta has not only won each of the hurlers five starts this season, the Braves have won the past sixteen games Medlen has started. The betting market has Braves $1.60 to $1.70 favorites to halt Friars streak.

Cardinals at Pirates: What Bettors Need to Know
By Covers.com
St. Louis Cardinals at Pittsburgh Pirates (+108, 8)
The St. Louis Cardinals are flying high and the host Pittsburgh Pirates are spiraling downward entering Tuesday’s second contest of a three-game set. The Cardinals won the opener for their sixth win in seven games to strengthen their position in the National League wild-card race. Meanwhile, the Pirates have dropped six of seven games and are three games behind St. Louis in the wild-card competition. Matt Holliday hit the go-ahead homer in Monday’s game.
The Cardinals hope to get third baseman David Freese (wrist) back after a three-game absence. Holliday leads the National League with 90 RBIs and is 14-for-31 (.452) during an eight-game hitting streak. First baseman Allen Craig is 11-for-23 (.478) with nine RBIs over the last five games. Pittsburgh star Andrew McCutchen had two hits for only his third multi-hit outing in his last 19 games. McCutchen is batting only .245 in August after a torrid July in which he batted .446. His .345 average is second best in the NL, one point behind suspended Melky Cabrera of the San Francisco Giants.
