Matt Fargo's Diamond Preview - A look at the upcoming week in baseball
Monday, June 2nd
Arizona Diamondbacks at Milwaukee Brewers 8:05 PM ET
Doug Davis makes his first trip back to Milwaukee this season to face his former club. This will be his third start since returning from cancer surgery and he will no doubt get a rousing welcome from Brewers fans. Davis was shelled last time out against the Giants and was hit hard in his last game in Milwaukee last season. Jeff Suppan counters for the Brewers and brings in a 0.93 ERA in four home starts. He has a 2.19 ERA in his last four encounters with the Diamondbacks.
Tuesday, June 3rd
New York Mets at San Francisco Giants 10:15 PM ET
Pedro
Martinez is slated to return from a
strained left hamstring to make his
second start of the season. The Mets
staff has struggled this season for
the most part so a healthy and effective
Martinez is vital for the remainder
of the season. He goes against Barry
Zito who was everyone's punching bag
for a while but has shown improvement.
Since returning to the rotation following
a stint in the bullpen where he saw
no action, Zito has posted a 3.49 ERA
in five starts and finally got that
elusive first victory two starts back.
Wednesday, June 4th
Detroit
Tigers at Oakland A's 3:35 PM ET
The Tigers ends their rugged nine-game west coast trip with a matinee in Oakland. Following a day off on Thursday, Detroit will play seven straight division games against the Indians and White Sox and even though the season is still young, that stretch could decide whether the Tigers remain in the race or not.

In this game, they face off against
Justin Duchscherer who is flying under
the radar with a 2.27 ERA and 1.01 WHIP
in eight starts. He is 3-0 with a 1.35
ERA and 0.65 WHIP in three home starts.
Thursday, June 5th
Tampa Bay Rays at Boston Red Sox
7:05 PM ET
It is moving day for many teams on
Thursday and the Rays and Red Sox conclude
their three-game set. Tampa Bay has been
the surprise of baseball as they entered
this week in first place in the American
League East. The Rays sport the second
best record in baseball but they will
be trying to improve upon that in Boston
where the Red Sox own the best home record
in baseball. Scott Kazmir, who has allowed
only two earned runs in his last five
starts, gets the call here and has a
solid 2.82 ERA in 18 starts against Boston.
Friday, June 6th
Philadelphia Phillies at Atlanta
Braves 7:35 PM ET
The Phillies and Braves commence their
second series of the season in Atlanta.
The Braves are the Jekyll and Hyde in
baseball in home and road games as the
host is 42-14 in their 56 games entering
this week. Tim Hudson missed Philadelphia
the first time around but he gets the
Phillies in the opener. In 13 starts
against the Phillies, he is 4-5 with
a 4.02 ERA and 1.46 WHIP. The wins are
the fewest against all division teams
and the ERA and WHIP are the highest
against all division opponents.
Saturday, June 7th
Los
Angeles Angels at Oakland A’s
9:05 PM ET
One of the best pitching matchups of
the week takes place Saturday with Ervin
Santana squaring off against Rich Harden.
Santana, with seven victories heading
into the week, has already matched his
win total from all of last year. He has
been strong on the road this year and
is 3-0 with a 1.57 ERA in four career
starts in Oakland. Harden meanwhile has
allowed two runs or fewer in five of
his six starts this season and in three
starts at McAfee Coliseum, he has posted
a 1.50 ERA and 1.11 WHIP.
