All times are in BST.<\/p>\n
Monday 22 August <\/strong><\/p>\n 22.05. Milwaukee at Pittsburgh (Narveson – Karstens)<\/p>\n We start the week with a game from the picturesque PNC Park in Pittsburgh.\u00c2\u00a0 The Brewers and Pirates are playing a double-header, hence the unusual start time for this game.\u00c2\u00a0 Chris Narveson is scheduled to make his first start after injuring himself with a pair of scissors.<\/p>\n Tuesday 23 August <\/strong><\/p>\n 18.05. Seattle at Cleveland (Beavan – Masterson)<\/p>\n It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s another double-header on Tuesday, this time being played in Cleveland.\u00c2\u00a0 The Mariners have rookie Blake Beavan in line to make his ninth Major League start, while the Tribe will send the impressive Justin Masterson out to the mound.<\/p>\n Wednesday 24 August <\/strong><\/p>\n 17.05. Seattle at Cleveland (Hernandez – Tomlin) The series in Cleveland and Pittsburgh come to an end on Wednesday with another early game in each.\u00c2\u00a0 Felix Hernandez and Shaun Marcum both have eleven pitching wins on the season, but in King Felix\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s case he has been lumbered with eleven losses to go along with the victories, in large part due to little fault of his own.<\/p>\n In Philadelphia, Kyle Kendrick filled in ably for Roy Oswalt during his period on the Disabled List and he should get another start on Wednesday against the Mets.<\/p>\n The Dodgers\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 Hiroki Kuroda was a man in demand leading up to the trade deadline before he decided to invoke his no-trade rights to stay in L.A.\u00c2\u00a0 Ever since then he has shown why so many teams were interested in adding him to their rotation and he will look to give the Dodgers another solid start against the Cardinals.<\/p>\n Thursday 25 August <\/strong><\/p>\n 18.05. Oakland at NY Yankees (Harden – Hughes) *ESPN America? There should be another pitcher on show on Thursday who was close to being dealt a few weeks ago.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n The Boston Red Sox had a deal in place to acquire Rich Harden from the A\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s, but an inspection of his medical records made them take a pass, ultimately to trade for Erik Bedard instead.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n Like Kuroda, Harden has pitched well ever since and matched a career-high with eleven strikeouts last time out against the Blue Jays.\u00c2\u00a0 The Yankees are in need of starting pitching help and have been linked with a waiver move for Harden.\u00c2\u00a0 If he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s still with the A\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s by Thursday, he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll be facing the Yankees instead of playing for them. [Update:<\/strong>\u00c2\u00a0minutes after\u00c2\u00a0I published this article\u00c2\u00a0I read\u00c2\u00a0on Twitter that the Indians had made a waiver claim for Harden but were unable to reach a deal with the A’s. So, Harden will make his start for Oakland on Thursday]<\/p>\n ESPN America viewers are being given the choice of three games starting just after 18.00 UK time.
