1. MLB notes

   Jose Contreras won his 15th consecutive decision last night in Chicago's 8-3 win over Texas, as he struck out a career-high 11 batters. He has now tied LaMarr Hoyt ((ྏ-84) and Wilson Alvarez (ྙ-94) for the team record and now sets aim at Johan Santana, who won 17 straight for the Twins in ཀ-05. I bring this up because tonight's full 15-game schedule offers an number of intriguing pitching matchups.

   Curt Schilling taking on Johan Santana is the best of them. The Red Sox visit the Twins in Minnesota tonight at 8:10 ET. Schilling has a strikeout-to-walk ratio of 77-9 this year, while Santana's is 91-16. Schilling is 9-2 this year but his road ERA is 4.73, compared to 2.50 in Fenway. Santana's 6-4 (3.16) mark this year is deceiving. He opened 0-3 in his first four starts this year but is 6-1 (2.53) over his last nine starts, with the Twins going 8-1.

   In Philadelphia, the Mets' Tom Glavine is 7-0 over his last eight starts (team is 8-0), while Phillies' starter Ryan Madson is 4-0 over his last six starts (Philly has gone 6-0). The difference however, is that Glavine has an ERA of 3.23 during his eight-game streak, while Madson's ERA is 5.29 over his last six games. Game time is 7:05 ET.

   Milwaukee's Doug Davis has a 5.11 ERA on the year (3-4 record) but the Brewers are 9-5 in his 14 starts. He'll face Bronson Arroyo of the Reds tonight in Cincinnati (7:10 ET), who is 8-2 on the year (2.31) with the Reds going 10-3 in his starts. While Davis owns a 7.31 road ERA, Arroyo's home ERA is 2.06. Maybe that's why he's 4-0 at home (Cincy is 6-0) and the Reds are about a $2.00 favorite?

   Jon Garland of the White Sox will try to get back on track tonight in Texas (8:05 ET), where he'll face the Rangers. Garland is looking to disprove the theory that he is a "one-year wonder." He better get going. Garland entered last year 46-51 (4.68) in his career but went 18-10 (3.50) with the White Sox going 22-12 in his starts (includes postseason).

   However, he's 4-3 this year with an ERA of 6.20 in 12 starts, while allowing 97 hits in 77 innings (White Sox are 6-6 in his starts). In seven road starts, Garland has allowed 60 hits in 43.2 innings, posting an ERA of 7.83. The good news for the White Sox is that Texas starter Kameron Loe has an ERA of 9.42 in his last three outings.

   The Mets take MLB's longest active winning streak (five) into their game tonight in Philly but another game to watch is Seattle at Oakland (10:05 ET), where both teams enter having won nine of their last 11 games. MLB's longest active losing streak belongs to the Diamondbacks (seven straight), a team that's been outscored 54-13 in their six losses since it was revealed that Jason Grimsley was under investigation on June 6.

   Rookie Enrique Gonzalez starts tonight for Arizona (D'backs host the Giants at 9:40 ET) and will be making his fourth appearance (third start) of the season. In his two previous starts, he's gone six innings in each outing, allowing a single ER in both games (1.50 ERA). His mound opponent tonight is SF's Jamey Wright, who has an ERA of 7.88 over his last three starts but has a road ERA of 2.75 in five away starts this year.
