Dealing To The Dish: American League 6.17.06




Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: MLB,

Jake Peavy dealingThe following interleague games will be played on American League grass.

San Diego Padres @ Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim
J. Peavy (4-7, 4.96) vs. E. Santana (6-3, 4.29)
- What’s happened to Peavy lately?  He doesn’t look like a Cy Young caliber pitcher at all, but should be able to turn it around because he’s just too good.  Speaking of too good, Santana has been the opposite of Peavy in recent starts.  In fact, he’s shown enough to be tradeable.  Could Carl Crawford of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays be westward bound?

San Francisco Giants @ Seattle Mariners
J. Schmidt (6-2, 2.46) vs. G. Meche (6-4, 4.46)
Schmidt has shown himself to be a bulldog this season and reminding us of his 2004 season when he went 18-7, 3.20 ERA, 1.08 WHIP, .202 BAA, and 251 K in 225.0 IP.  Meche has been a perennial Mr. Potential, but never getting the results consistently for a whole season as he flashes dominance on the rare occassion, but for the most part, eh, not so much.

Arizona Diamondbacks @ Texas Rangers
K. Jarvis (0-0, 9.95) vs. J. Koronka (4-4, 5.11)
The Rangers made Cy Young candidate, Brandon Webb, look bad last night.  The main culprit of doing that was OF Brad Wilkerson who went 3-for-4, including a homer, a double for 3 RBI, plus had a stolen base.  Wilkerson has been inconsistent and still hasn’t found his stride, but he’s getting there, and I believe he will get there.

Los Angeles Dodgers @ Oakland Athletics
D. Lowe (5-3, 2.83) vs. K. Saarloos (3-4, 4.82)
The N.L. West leading Dodgers match up for the second game of a three game series with the hot Oakland Athletics.  The A’s have won eight in a row and look to be starting their second half surge a little earlier than usual.  Derek Lowe has only given up six runs in his last five appearances, going 4-0 in that span.

Enjoy the games!
