We caught the Rangers when they were playing their best baseball of the season. Splitting that series was perfectly acceptable. The Yankees are in a mini slump, only scoring 5 runs in their last three games. Tonight is a tough match up but we ought to take two of three in this series.

I'm amazed the line vs Pineda is only +113, especially when we are throwing our long guy who hasn't had much success vs them in the past.

well everyone pretty much thinks the Yankees are going to fall off and finish around .500 this year ... so ...
here is what they have: Ellsbury and Gardner have been just about the best 1 - 2 hitters in baseball this year. Then, they have Rodriguez/Teixiera/McCann/Beltran who are K or HR hitters ... I think they all hit around .230 ... but if they hit it, it is usually hit hard. They have a pretty subpar starting rotation ... but then they have a Royals-esque 8th/9th inning bullpen ... if they are leading in the 8th ... the game is over. Betances / Miller is probably an even better combo than Davis / Holland (unless Holland starts throwing 95-96 again) ... and even then, they are flat out unhittable (especially Miller). Now, with Betances, he has some command issues ... but that won't be a problem with the Royals ... because we swing at everything. Let's put it this way ... if the game is tied after 7 ... expect a lot of extra inning baseball between the Yanks / Royals. |

I actually almost look forward to the Royals hitting against Betances/Miller so I can see Pete lose his cool because the Royals are swinging and missing at balls ... or looking at strikes ... etc...
Betances 20 IP 0 ER 31 K's Miller 16.2 IP 0 ER 29 K's 36.2 IP 0.00 ERA 60 K's For reference, HDH have a combined 35 strikeouts in 40 innings. |
