Go with Pedro. Harden's had a good start to the season so far, but let's stop ourselves from getting too out of hand. He's facing the #1 offense in the league, and struggled in his last start against Toronto, who also has a high powered offense. In addition, he's facing the most dominant pitcher of the time.
Let him sit this one out, and take his performance with a grain of salt. After all, he's just a rookie.

I also have Penny going against Colorado, the 2nd-best hitting team at home in MLB. Rockies, at home: .303/.381/.518, .898 OPS, 6.8 R/G
And Schmidt against the Braves, who are the 2nd-best hitting team on the road in MLB. Braves, away: .274/.339/.474, .813 OPS, 5.8 R/G.
Could be a scary day, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
I do not envy your position. Hope you have some liquor handy.
Yes doctor, I am sick. Sick of those who are spineless. Sick of those who feel self-entitled. Sick of those who are hypocrites. Yes doctor, an army is forming. Yes doctor, there will be a war. Yes doctor, there will be blood.....
