3-3, - less than a unit. Miley's 4 HRs doomed what could have been an outstanding day.
Seattle -124 ML. 2 units. The only negative here is that Seattle is flying cross country for this game. They'll get in tonight, sleep late and then go to the ballpark in the afternoon to get ready for a 7:00 start. Felix Hernandez has an amazing ERA in Yankee Stadium, most of it vs. much better hitting Yankee team than this one. The Yankees have been trying to pry him from the Mariners for many years now, and maybe Felix is telling them,"See what you're missing". Either way, he gets up for the big games. Felix actually struggles more vs. Houston and other weaker teams.
The Yankees looked so anemic vs. the Twins dreadful pitching this weekend, how will they ever hit a real pitcher? The Yankees used to beat up on RHPs in Yankee Stadium, but this weekend bums like Nolasco and Correia and an average Phil Hughes shut them down pretty much. Texeira is likely out, Beltran is out, Solarte and Soriano are fading, and unless King Felix has an uncharacteristic bad game, this should be a low scoring Yankee offensive game. Phelps, a RHP, is better for the Mariners' hitters since they have a lefty stacked lineup. They're coming off a series win vs. Detroit and if they win this make-up game, will have swept this away series with NY.
Tampa -1 (-110) 2 units. This line(ML -140 IN Miami)exactly portrays just how bad the big bettors think Randy Wolf might do. Word from his last start was that it was very ugly, that he has no out pitch- basically a mid 80s fastball and a slow loopy curve. Alex Cobb, meanwhile has pitched very well going back to last year. I can excuse his last start on the road vs. the torrid Blue Jays. Everyone is getting slapped around by them. Cobb has great array of breaking pitches(an awesome change), commands them well and against the young hitters of Miami, should do well. Both Tampa and the Marlins are not hitting well, but considering the pitching matchup, I like the Rays' chances.
