Sawyer's MLB Play Of The Day 6/5 Yankees vs Blue Jays
Hi baseball fans! New York Yankees and Toronto Blue Jays will be gunning for a victory tonight when they meet in the 2nd game of their series.
Yankees will be looking to bounce back today after 6-1 loss last night versus Blue Jays.
Yanks will have Andy Pettite who is 1. 15 WHIP and 4. 05 ERA in his last 3 outings on the mound. Left-hander is 7-1 so far this season with an impressive 1. 15 WHIP and 2. 48 ERA.
200th Victory?
Pettite seeks his 200th victory with the reigning World Series champion New York Yankees..
On the other side, Blue Jays will give the ball to Ricky Romero. Romero was 1-1 in his last 3 outings, posting 1. 38 WHIP and 3. 86 ERA. Romero is 1-1 with a 5.94 ERA in three starts versus the Yankees last year.
Blue Jays hate lefties..
Yanks are hitting . 288 versus lefties so far this season, . 289 in last 10 games. On the other side, Blue Jays are struggling versus soutpaws, hitting only . 190 versus southpaws when playing at home and . 200 overall.
Look for Yanks to bounce back today after 6-1 loss last night, GL! PICK: NY YANKEES ML -118
I love the analysis. The pic of that young lady is also exceptional.
Pettite has also made Toronto bats very quiet in recent meetings btw.
I just find it hard to bet against the Jays right now. I watched that game yesterday (had them +1.5), and there is something about that team right now and the atmosphere at the park. It was electric when Bautista launched those two HRs. There were a few terrific defensive plays.
Hard for me to buy that they don't show up today just b/c they struggle against lefties. The Jays lineup is almost as potent as the Yankees'. Pettite's having a great year, but Romero is no slouch.
Seems pretty unusual that you get the Yankees for only -130 when it's their #2 pitcher and they are playing well. The value seems great. I just think it's 50 / 50 whether the Jays really do have a pitiful showing against a lefty today OR come out and hit 3-4 bombs, and tomorrow we're seeing threads about the Yankees are a LOCK b/c NO WAY WILL THE JAYS SWEEP. And if that happens I'm taking the Jays tomorrow.
Sawyer good call on Yanks,last nights game was a trap thought the line was off,Burnett is now 0-6 at Toronto and has not won a game there since 8/08,Jays deffenetly get up for him,they have his #.YANKEES EVEN UP TODAY
