Don't you pound the Yanks (+106) again on Monday?

I know Hughes has struggled lately, but so has Lester.

Better team at home. Thank you.

So it has gone from +105 to -140 on Bookmaker??? That is some crazy line movement.

hughes been hasn't been the same since they gave him extra day's off.. messed up his routine

I'm starting to think Red Sox take this game to stay in the hunt.
Something's telling me Hughes may have control problems or try to get too cute
and end up walking quite a few batters.
Left-handed hitters David Ortiz (4 for 6) and J.D. Drew (5 for 9) have enjoyed success against the right-hander.
Also, some points on Lester..
Derek Jeter is 10 for 30 against Lester while Nick Swisher (.211), Mark Teixeira (.211) and Jorge Posada (.167) have all fared poorly. Lester has a 4.11 ERA during the day compared to 2.74 at night. Also, A-Rod is only probable and still sore.

I really think this is Yanks or nothing. After the Rays started losing I said the Yanks are going to take over, and they are. We all know if the Yanks come full power no one can stop them, and with all the trends against them, betting against them at home right now is not a good idea.

Yanks parlayed with over or yanks over.

At full strength or even 80%, I would agree.

I just can't back Boston here given Lester's recent struggles and the team that will be backing him up. And that fact about Lester's day ERA doesn't help considering it's a day game.

i hear ya. i have no bet on this yet. are you down for yanks ?

chaseutleyfan26 · 08-09-10, 12:27 PM

yanks for the win today, as painful as it is to say.

sweethook · 08-09-10, 12:41 PM

Both starting pitchers did well though.

But Lester was better

Lester 6.1 IP, 4H, 0 Runs, 3 BB, 6 Ks
Hughes 6.0 IP, 6H, 2 Runs, 1 BB, 3 Ks
