DAILY MATCHUPS: A pair of lefties

As a way to preview the day's games, the 2013 Daily Matchups column seeks to highlight the outliers or notable matchups on BaseballHQ.com's Starting Pitcher Report (also available as an 8-day scan). For more information on how to leverage the report, see our research article from 2012.

 

Today's schedule overview:  There are three mid-afternoon games, then a bunch of evening games on the schedule today.  The interleague matchup is COL @ BAL.  The Braves (v. WAS), Dodgers (@PHI), and Tigers (v. KC) all look to pad their gaudy leads in the divisional standings.

 

Best SP choices:

  • Clayton Kershaw (LHP, LA) has been brilliant all year long (1.88 ERA, 2.99 xERA, 127 BPV), even better than he was last season (2.53 ERA, 3.23 xERA, 121 BPV)...

Almost!
