Smokin' Aces: Top MLB Pitchers To Play And Fade

The regular season is winding down, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t still money to be made on the bases.

Some pitchers are stepping up their game in the heat of the playoff race, while others are ready to put their arm on ice for the winter.

Here are two pitchers to play and two to fade as we head into the home stretch.

Money Makers

David Price, Tampa Bay Rays

David Price appears to be rounding back into form after enduring a rocky month of August in which he lasted beyond sixth innings only twice in five starts.

Walks are still an issue with Price, as he’s handed out six over his last two starts. But there’s no denying Price is heating up after allowing just six hits and two earned runs while striking out nine in his first two September starts.

Even though Price struggled in August, the Rays still managed to win three of his five starts. They’ve gone 7-2 over his last nine outings.

The Rays currently sit percentage points behind the Yankees for first place in the American League East, but they’re not facing a great deal of pressure. That’s because the runner-up in the East will undoubtedly win the Wild Card.

Jonathan Sanchez, San Francisco Giants

Jonathan Sanchez has been overshadowed by Tim Lincecum and Matt Cain this season, but make no mistake, he’s been every bit as important during their late-season push.

Sanchez has remarkably held opponents to a .208 batting average this season. He’s been nearly unhittable against left-handed batters, as they’ve posted a collective .164 average.

In two September starts, Sanchez has allowed only four hits over 12 shutout innings. He issued seven walks in his last outing, but that’s nothing new. He’s given up 85 walks this season and has offset those with 176 strikeouts in 169 2-3 innings of work.

With the Giants fighting for their playoff lives, we can expect Sanchez to receive plenty of support from his teammates. There’s no quit in this group and Sanchez is certainly worth a wager down the stretch.

Bankroll Burners

Brett Cecil, Toronto Blue Jays

Don’t get me wrong, Brett Cecil is having an outstanding sophomore season, but you don’t want your money anywhere near him right now.

The Jays have dropped two of Cecil’s last three starts and he’s clearly showing signs of fatigue in September. In his first two starts this month, the left hander has allowed 15 hits and 10 earned runs while posting an even 6:6 strikeout-to-walk ratio in only 8 1-3 innings pitched.

Of course, Cecil’s struggles go back further than that. He’s made six starts since August 14 and has been tagged for 45 hits and 23 earned runs, including six home runs, in just 35 2-3 innings.

Keep in mind, Cecil threw only 93 1-3 innings in his rookie season. He’s already racked up 155 innings this season. The Jays have shut Brandon Morrow down for the year and they might be well advised to do the same with Cecil.

Livan Hernandez, Washington Nationals

We’re finally seeing the struggles we expected out of Livan Hernandez all season.

The Nationals have won just once in his last seven starts. They had gone 13-9 in his first 22 trips to the hill this season.

Hernandez has suddenly become very hittable, allowing 48 knocks and 28 earned runs in his last 34 2-3 innings of work. He has also topped out at four strikeouts or fewer in four of his last five outings.

The Nationals aren’t exactly a difficult team to fade right now. They’ve lost five games in a row and are already looking ahead to next season.

Find a spot where you can fade Hernandez without going north of -200 and pull the trigger.

HOT LINES

Wednesday’s Best MLB Bets

New York Yankees at Tampa Bay Rays (-101, 9)

Derek Jeter has been mired in an unusual slump, having hit .168 over the past four weeks, and that is a big reason why the Yankees have unable to pull away from Tampa Bay in the American League East. In fact, New York trailed by a half game as of Tuesday evening.

In an attempt to get back on track, Jeter put in an extensive session with hitting coach Kevin Long after Saturday’s loss to Texas. The shortstop went 1-for-2 with two walks on Sunday, but recorded only one hit in five at-bats against the Rays on Monday. “I was excited about his at-bats,” Long told the New York Daily News after Sunday’s game. “I think he made a move in the right direction. We have a long way to go, but it's a start in the right direction.”

The Yankees need to get back on the right track, themselves, having lost four in a row. They just might do it on Wednesday; they are 21-9 in Phil Hughes’ last 30 starts and 14-4 in Hughes’ last 18 starts on four days of rest. The Yankees are also 5-1 the last six times they have faced Scott Shields in Tampa Bay.

Pick: New York Yankees


San Diego Padres at Colorado Rockies (-145, 9)

What is it about the Colorado Rockies and the late-season surge?

Last year they went 21-8 in their last 29 games. Two years ago they went 20-11 in their last 31. Both times they secured the National League Wild Card.

What are the Rockies doing for an encore? On September 2, they found themselves 7.5 games out of first place in the National League West. As of Tuesday, Colorado is 9-1 in its last 10 games, is just 2.5 games back of San Diego, and is within three of Atlanta for the Wild Card.

“It’s amazing,” center fielder Carlos Gonzalez said in an interview with the New York Times. “I guess we save it for the end. We make it more exciting for everybody.”

“That’s the weird part about this game,” added Jason Giambi, who hit a pinch-hit game-winning homer on Sunday. “Mentally, if you just believe ‘I know we’re going to do great in September’ — which all of these guys do — it usually happens.”

Mentally, the Rockies have to like their chances against San Diego on Wednesday. Not only are they streaking, but they have won 18 of Jorge De La Rosa’s last 21 home starts. De La Rosa has pitched at least five innings and has given up no more than three earned runs in each of his past 10 starts dating back to July 22.
