Weaver at Yankees: Does baseball get any better than this?

[cleaveland]

The best pitcher v. the best hitting team, it's gonna be great! Does anyone besides me find the 9.5 total to be high?

Angels hitters are hitting .322 lifetime v. Nova (Nova has a 5.11 ERA in four career starts against the Angels) and Yankees hitters are hitting .272 lifetime v. Weaver. I can't find any other reason for such a high total.

My lean is towards the Yankees here because they're rolling and Weaver is 2-2 with a 5.83 ERA at the Yankees.

Any thoughts on this one?

I like Angels to do work today..

The Yankees have been home dogs once this season (I'm pretty sure they're gonna end being dogs here).

That game was April 27, Verlander v. Nova. The total was 8.5 and the Yankees won 7-6. With the total being so high here it looks like the oddsmakers are expecting a similar kind of game:

Angels suck

They will be non factors by September

[TheBayouBengal]

Good points, i think the total is a little high myself. Actually see 9 in a few places as of right now. GL

[Brock Landers]

Weaver as good as they come

yess.

no way this is a 3-2 game lol.

gotta tail the Halos here. they have been right there with the Yanks every game but blow ups in late innings. Weaver will get it done today.

[You mad bro]

Weaver was having a bad first inning against the yanks until he got hurt ... You never know though

[freelife1]

wrong. theres only so much he can do

[cleaveland]

yess.

no way this is a 3-2 game lol.

My play is Angels under 4.5 runs. I said the oddsmakers seem to be expecting a high scoring game, the Yankees can explode anytime but I'm expecting a low scoring game.

Yanks may sweep, but all that likely changes in the p'loffs ... NYY is built to sell tix and be in 1st Place during the reg. season...

the ASG was a little preview of what is in store for the Yanks come October.. lotta those HRs dry up... and all of a sudden*
hitting % with RISP comes into play... *they are 3rd from last in AL i think in that category.. maybe MLB

Flip a coin! Gonna sit back and just enjoy this one. Wanna bet against the N.Y. cu*ts but just cannot bring myself to do it. GL guys

This could be one of the best games of the entire season.

You have no idea what your saying .. The yanks still hot home runs in October ...

[lunchbawks]

bronx bombers get the win

[R.P. McMurphy]

I thought the home run derby was last Tues in K.C.? Hahaha "Anything you can do I can do better"! Probably gonna have a 7-6 type game here un backers start worrying now.

[aortega521]

You have no idea what your saying .o. The yanks still hot home runs in October ...

actually he's spot on. They won't be hitting as many HRs cause they'll be facing elite pitching. Same reason theyve been bounced the last two years

[PickWinnerAllDay]

I like well pitched games.

So yes, baseball gets better than this.

Weaver not on his game, got yanks live -1.5 +150
