Who if any would you guys start tomorrow?

Padilla @ Atl vs Ramirez
Sabathia @ KC vs Anderson
Ishii @ Ari vs Webb

The way I see it is Padilla is the hottest but is playing in Atl. Ishii is pitching the worst but pitches against Ari. Anything worth a shot here? Thanks for any insight.

One thing to keep in mind is that Padilla has absolutely owned the Braves this year. In 4 starts against them this year, he is 3-0 with a 1.48 ERA and 0.89 WHIP. That includes a shutout against them in April. I would definitely start him since he seems to have their number.

I would seriously consider benching Sabathia and Ischii. Sabathia has been only mediocre since the all star break (4.50 ERA), and he's facing a Royals team that absolutely has to win. Ishii has only had 2 starts since coming off the DL; in one he walked 6 in 5 innings but didn't give up a run somehow, in the other he got lit up at Coors Field. I'd be a little nervous about starting him until he shows that he can throw a quality start, even against a listless DBacks offense.
