Francisco Liriano – Thursday vs. Milwaukee – Liriano dominated the Mets Saturday in his first start of the season for the Pirates. He struck out nine and gave up six hits and walked two in only 5.1 innings of one-run ball, pitching on a 90-pitch limit. Thirty-five percent of his strikes were swung at and missed; Yu Darvish leads the league in swing-and-miss percentage at a measly – compared to Liriano – 16.7 percent.

Ross Detwiler – Wednesday at Los Angeles Dodgers – Detwiler’s 1.36 WHIP suggests his 2.53 ERA is a mirage, but his ERA shouldn’t be that much higher. He’s limiting his walks, getting a good amount of ground balls and keeping the ball in the park. Oh, and the Dodgers are measly offensively.

Kevin Correia – Tuesday vs. Chicago White Sox – Correia isn’t as good as his 3.09 ERA suggests, but the 32-year-old is pitching extremely well at home (1.86 ERA) with a better K% and BB% compared to his road numbers. The White Sox are the second to worst road offense by wRC+.

Zach McAllister – Saturday vs. Seattle – McAllister shutout the A’s – the highest scoring team in the league – Tuesday over seven innings, and outside of a five-walk start against the White Sox he’s been pretty impressive. Yeah, he could get hit hard by the Tigers Sunday, but don’t let that scare you off. Seattle’s not a good offensive team by any measure, and McAllister is doing a good job limiting both hits and walks with consistent, if a bit low, strikeout numbers.
