Phillies @ Marlins
At Marlins Park
Makeup of 8/6 PPD

Athletics @ Mariners
At T-Mobile Park
Makeup of 9/1 PPD
LHP
2-2, 4.32 ERA, 52 SO

LHP
6-2, 3.49 ERA, 53 SO
Gonzales will get the first game of the doubleheader, and he's been Seattle's top starter all year, going 5-1 with a 2.72 ERA in seven starts since a rough outing on Opening Day. The lefty has walked just four batters in 50 2/3 innings.

At T-Mobile Park
Makeup of 9/2 PPD
LHP
1-5, 5.40 ERA, 47 SO
Minor makes his second start since joining the A's from Texas just before the Trade Deadline. The left-hander looked sharp for three innings against the Astros in his first start Tuesday before a four-run fourth inning led to an early departure in an Oakland loss.

Cardinals @ Brewers
At Miller Park
LHP
2-0, 0.63 ERA, 17 SO
Kim will make his first start since abdominal pain rushed him to the hospital in Chicago, where he was diagnosed with a kidney ailment. In his last start against the Reds, he pitched five scoreless innings, with two walks and four strikeouts.
RHP
1-3, 5.26 ERA, 48 SO
Lindblom will rejoin the rotation after making his last two appearances in relief, since a spate of off-days negated the need for a fifth starter. He will be making his first start since Sept. 1 against the Tigers.

Cardinals @ Brewers
At Miller Park
Makeup of 8/1 PPD
RHP
0-3, 6.23 ERA, 30 SO

RHP
3-0, 1.98 ERA, 74 SO

Braves @ Orioles
At Oriole Park at Camden Yards
RHP
0-2, 8.88 ERA, 30 SO
Toussaint will return to the big league club for the first time since Aug. 23. The right-hander posted a 6.11 ERA in four starts before being optioned to the alternate training site. His curveball has been effective, but his slider has been a detriment.
RHP
2-0, 5.23 ERA, 22 SO
The Orioles want to see more of López, whom they acquired off waivers from the Royals on Aug. 9. The righty is 1-0 with a 5.79 ERA in six games (three starts) since arriving in Baltimore.

RHP
5-2, 3.20 ERA, 34 SO

Dodgers @ Padres
At Petco Park
LHP
5-2, 2.28 ERA, 53 SO
Look who's clearly the ace of the staff again. Even though he wasn't at his best last start, he got through five innings and kept the game close enough for the Dodgers to pull out an extra-inning win. The Dodgers have won six of his seven starts.
RHP
3-1, 2.12 ERA, 79 SO
Lamet threw 66 sliders in his last start -- 15 more than any pitcher had thrown in a game this season to that point. It clearly works. Opponents are hitting .099 against the pitch this season.
