i think so they are slumping i have been riding sox all weekend. yesterday danks was easy money. cc is getting better but buehrle has been great tough game to call
I lean White Sox with the way Beuhrle has pitched last two times out! Much better games on the schedule today though, than to try to pick the winner in this one.
In streak Buerhle is 0-5 against the Yanks. He is to be faded when facing this team until he proves that he can beat the Yanks. I got me some Yankee earlier. Sabathia is being had at a ridiculously low price today.
Buehrle is 1-6 with a 6.11 ERA in eight starts versus the Yankees including 0-4 with a 6.91 ERA in five home outings.
Yankees captain Derek Jeter is 10 for 25 (.400) against Buehrle and first baseman Mark Teixeira is 10 for 32 (.313) with a homer and seven RBIs.
Sabathia (10-7, 3.83) is 14-4 with a 3.65 ERA in 26 starts against the White Sox in his career.
The left-hander is also 7-1 with a 2.84 ERA in 13 starts at U.S. Cellular Field for his best visiting record in any AL park.
Pierzynski is 4 for 24 (.167) against Sabathia.
Thome is 3 for 21 (.143) with nine strikeouts against Sabathia.
Chicago first baseman Paul Konerko is 12 for 63 (.190) in his career versus Sabathia, but Konerko is batting .381 against left-handers this season.
White Sox are 2-7 in the last 9 meetings when Buehrle faces Sabathia.
White Sox are 0-5 in Buehrles last 5 home starts vs. Yankees.
Road Favorites in Game 4 of a Series
Home field advantage in baseball decreases as the series progresses to the point that by game 4, it is as if the game was played on a neutral field. Since the Vegas odds have yet to take this into account, we can capitalize on a small system playing on road favorites.
Favorites are defined as a team that has the highest likelihood of winning and the odds express its probability of winning. We have the suspicion that road favorites should be bigger favorites when playing in the fourth game of a series by nature of the fact that Game 4 turns into a neutral field.
Give our team the motivation necessary to close out the series strong and we have a pretty good yet rare system. Losing game 3 should be sufficient motivation for our favorite in game 4. Our team is about 8 points undervalued and it is +15 units over the past 7 seasons.
My pick is..

The betting trend is telling me to go against the public and pick CWS. But my rule book say don't play against a good team trying to avoid a sweep. It's a very tough call to make. If this is the only game and I have to have action, I would take the Yanks because good teams usually play well in this situation. No play for me, best of luck to y'all.
