Liriano (hamstring) expects to start Tuesday in San Diego, DK Pittsburgh Sports reports."Now everything feels great," Liriano said. "I'll be ready to go on Tuesday. Try to go out there, go the deepest I can, execute pitches and go from there."

EDGE Analysis

The lefty, who has missed one turn in the rotation, said his hamstring felt tight during a bullpen session in Cincinnati. In two starts before getting hurt, Liriano has compiled a 2.45 ERA with 13 strikeouts in 11 innings, though he's issued nine walks and thrown just 52.7 percent (97 of 184) of his pitches for strikes. After facing the Padres on Tuesday he'll likely pitch against the Diamondbacks in Arizona.
