Nick Martinez getting disrespected

[BadLuckSanta]

Doesn't Vegas know that CC is a pile of shit?
I do.

Umpire for today's game is Brian Knight
Home team is 2-5 when Knight is behind home plate

As soon as lineups are out we will pound the Rangers

[STAX]

love rangers and the under

Not so fast, the lineup is out, let's break it down.

Delino DeShields Jr.(R) CF
Shin-Soo Choo(L) RF
Prince Fielder(L) DH
Adrian Beltre(R) 3B
Mitch Moreland(L) 1B
Elvis Andrus(R) SS
Adam Rosales(R) 2B
Carlos Corporan(S) C
Jake Smolinski(R) LF

Bypass DeShields for a second.

Choo is an auto out batting second.
He's a lefty bat, that has never demonstrated he can't hit LHP.
I don't even have to go to the splits to tell you he can't hit LHP. I bet you he's .150 lifetime vs. LHP.

CC is harsh on LH batters, Prince will not get his nut off today.
Beltre has been batting against CC for a decade, and hasn't done jack shit off of CC either.

The guy (believe it or not) that can hurt him is Andrus, righty stick.
And they are going to need Deshields to get on, he owns a nice OBA, so he's capable.
There are too many holes in the Rangers lineup.

Yanks are amongst the league leader in making opposing pitchers work.
They work the count as well as any team, so they will probably take Nicky deep into the count, forcing him to throw 80 pitches by the fifth.

Look at Martinez last start, 103 pitches in five full innings. Five walks.
Start before that, 101 pitches, 6.1 innings, start before that one, 80 pitches, 4.2 innings.
Therefore, more than likely you're going to have to go to the Rangers bullpen, and they aren't good.
27th out of 30th. And Yanks bullpen is amongst the league leaders.

Also, you have to factor in who is available out of the bullpen.
Freeman got hammered in relief yesterday, so did Scheleppers in a 10-9 win.
Remember, Martinez is only a 6 inning pitcher.
Not to mention The Yanks big three relievers are ready, Betnances and Miller weren't used at all yesterday, and CC is a 7th inning pitcher.

Now regrading Brian Knight.

This is his 7th HPU assignment this year, and yes he rotates from 1B ump last night to HPU today, and his K/BB ratio calling balls and strikes is 2.83, or pretty much there will be on the average of 9 K's and 3 BB's a game when he's umpiring, so his zone is tight.

Now having said all that, -163 on the Yanks is very high, +153 is tempting, bullpen will make or break the game, and Texas doesn't have it today.

PASS for me

[stevenash]

love rangers and the under

Why do you like Rangers and under.
I'm leaning under myself, Rangers aren't scoring today, too many holes in lineup.

Yeah, think NY takes this one, Rangers bullpen almost blew it last night. And Yanks are gonna work those pitches.

[Snowball]

Martinez has been hot, but there's no reason to elevate him too highly yet.
Yankees are due.
Martinez doesn't have much experience vs this Yankee lineup.
Gardner is the one who has owned him at .800 avg 4/5
Yankees did rally to 9 runs in the loss last night

[Snowball]

forget yankees, too expensive.

[BadLuckSanta]

Nash...awesome break down

Sounds like Rangers first 5 is the bet

[OckertCR]

Yanks can't be backed until they show they can win again.

Tex has been playing pretty well as of late

Big Loser

[Chi_archie]

nice work!

[daneblazer]

I like how Beltran let's the ball roll past him, then he just casually jogs back to get it. Nice effort there

[Powderguy]

nice winner

[Rich Boy]

Yankees are a disgrace to baseball what a joke

[No coincidences]

Who sets these lines? A trained chimp?

Wish I would've saw this earlier. Wow.

Wow of course u wish u saw this earlier, U say that everyday

[jt315]

He made a really weak effort at a catchable ball in foul territory in a recent game. If Ellsbury wasn't hurt I would sit his ass a game or two and play Chris Young to send him a message. Lazy old penetrate!

And Gregorius who can't hit a lick is playing like shit in the field as well.

[BadLuckSanta]

Last 3 or 4 posted plays been easy winners and big bear trying to give me shit hahaha


I do this shit for fun and these idiots out here grinding everyday for a $100 win

SBR; where clowns come together to be miserable bettors

[Art Vandelay]

Relaxing! Just like Cavs v Hawks series...

[Calgunner23]

Great call BLS!

[BigDofBA]

Wow, none of those runs should be earned let alone 5

All of those runs would have scored anyway. Are you watching the game?
