Another winning day yesterday and look to get some more back today.
NYY -1' -110 2 Units
I am shocked that CC is under -200 here. When I looked at Dallas Braden earlier this week I saw this as a spot where he was going to struggle. He has been very good so far showing exceptional command and moving quickly through the lineups he's faced. But he has faced 3 of the lightest hitting offenses, especially against LH's and now he will be facing the best, especially vs LH. Basically it's like facing a lineup full of Alex Rios's in his first 3 games now he gets a lineup of Chase Utley's. CC has also been very tough so far this year and has really looked sharp in all his outings while not extending himself much in regard to pitch counts. I think that will work in his favor and as a big game pitcher he shouldn't get caught up in pitching at home.
I realize the Yankees are typically overvalued but they are on a roll and in a great spot in against a slightly overrated pitcher, who although he has good skills will be tested at a different level this afternoon.
Milwaukee -1' -110 2 Units
McCutcheon showed good improvement in his last outing but he has broken 80 pitches this year and without going long in the game the Brewers get to feast on the Pirates bullpen. Getting 4-5 innings from them is a mess and this is a great matchup for Wolf. The Pirates have struggled to hit LH's this year and if McCutcheon is controlled at the top of the lineup it really puts a damper on the Pirates offense. Wolf is also exceptional controlling the running game.
Notes on the two other early games...I expect Jimenez to have a shorter outing but with their bullpen that shouldn't be a problem. I also think Hernandez comes back to earth a little but that line is too high to justify a play on either side for me. I was also surprised to see the Indians amazing tilt toward unders, but the back end of their lineup is really a joke right now. The guys they are running out there are brutal.
Some more on the night games later. And since it looks like I will be on an island with the two big favs today Good luck to me. :thumbs::thumbs:
