So many reasons to take the White Sox today...
The Yankees are 11-11 in CC starts despite scoring 5.18 rpg in his starts
The Sox are 15-6 in Buerhle starts while scoring 5.14 rpg in his starts
CC WHIP in last 3 starts = 1.42
Buerhle WHIP in last 3 starts = 0.62
CC has lost against last 4 lefty starters outscored 16:27
Buerhle has beaten last 3 lefty starters outscoring them 19-7
Yankees 2-7 last 9 away both wins came when they scored 6+ runs
CWS won last 4 Buerhle home starts despite allowing 6 or more twice
NYY with CC away 5-0 if opp.scores 2- and 1-6 if opp. scores 3+
CWS scored 3+ at home in 16 of last 18 and 11 of 12 in Buerhle starts
Buerhle wins big pitchers matchups in this ballpark. CWS won 8 straight Buerhle home starts when the era of two starters was under 8. During the streak they won against Lester, Halladay, Dempster, Greinke.
You think Yankees cant get swept. Well, last three times they were facing a sweep they lost to Lackey, Penny and Masterson. In two of those three losses they had CC on the mound.
You think CC is a streak stopper since he has been a pitching ace thruout his career. Think again. He is 2-9 on the road when his teams are playing after a loss. He never won in this situation if the opponent era was under 5.00 (0-4 career record). He never won in road series game 2,3 or 4 if his team is off a loss (0-5) and he never won when trying to awoid a sweep when his team is on the road (0-2).
Buerhle is 9-0 in his career at home when his team is off 3+ wins and the opponent is off at least 1 loss. He is definately not the guy the opponents want to face when trying to snap a losing streak.
And if this is not enough for you take the Sox, then check out this:
