Rangers at Yankees, 7:05 p.m. ET Paging Andy Pettitte? The New York braintrust finally gave us an explanation for Phil Hughes' struggles on Friday afternoon, sending the young pitcher to the DL with a case of dead arm. Bartolo Colon will take his spot in the rotation, but it won't come up during this series against the 9-3 Rangers. It's Texas' first visit to the Bronx since last October's victory in the ALCS.
Orioles at Indians, 7:05 An interesting pitching matchup between Zach Britton and Justin Masterson kicks off this unlikely spotlight series. Will the Tribe's 4-2 record out West spur larger weekend crowds at Progressive Field this weekend?
Mets at Braves, 7:30 What's more surprising: Atlanta getting off to a 5-8 start or Derek Lowe holding a 1.45 ERA after three starts? No matter your answer, the struggling Braves offense might be able to get a boost from facing New York, which is battling a five-game losing streak of its own.
Blue Jays at Red Sox, 7:10 Solid gold prediction of the weekend: No matter if Boston is 5-9 or 2-12 on Sunday evening, Red Sox fans and beat writers will still be looking for a statistic that shows the World Series is still in reach.
Angels at White Sox, 8:10 Jered Weaver has struck out 27 batters in 20 2/3 innings so far this season, including 15 against Toronto last Friday. Can his 0.87 ERA stay under 1.00 after facing a Pale Hose offense that ranks first in the AL with 73 runs? And can Chicago's Phil Humber survive his turn as the fifth starter as Jake Peavy aims to return at the end of the month?
Cardinals at Dodgers, 10:10 Break up the Redbirds! They've scored 46 runs as they've won four of their last five games. A series win will send them home happy to St. Louis.
