Yesterday: 0-1/YTD: 257-273, -44.3
August 19th
Yankees -0.5 F5 (-120), 2*
Yankees/Red Sox under 8.5 (-115), 2*
This F5 bet is solely based on the starters. We all know Cole has been really good and the Yankees aren’t struggling because of him. He has the Cy Young wrapped up barring injury or complete ineffectiveness the rest of the way. Meanwhile, Crawford is showing signs of fatigue this year. He is at a career high of 90 innings and watching Boston closely as I do, his stuff hasn’t been as sharp. Full disclosure, Crawford has been dynamite on the road compared to at Fenway. His road ERA is 2.13 compared to 5.95 at Fenway. He has also been a much better pitcher during the day. I’m not saying Crawford is going to get tattooed. I think both pitchers will be good today, which is part of why I’m on the under. But if one struggles, it is much more likely to be Crawford. I think we have a chance at a nice sweep in this game to start the day. GL!
