If you've been living under a rock, you may have missed the Kris Bubic breakout this season after he threw just 46 1/3 innings across the last two years. But he's finally healthy and looks like one of the best pitchers in baseball.

Bubic owns the leading ERA (1.43) of any qualified starter through 12 outings, with the highest bWAR (3.5) of any AL pitcher. He ranks second leaguewide in zone contact rate (78.5%) and fourth in swinging strike rate (14.6%), and Bubic has allowed just 0.34 home runs per nine innings - the second-best mark of any starter.

That all bodes well for his chances to survive against this Yankees lineup, which leads MLB in home runs (107) and barrel rate (11.5%). If he can win a showdown with AL MVP odds favorite Aaron Judge, I love his chances to end the day with fewer than three earned runs allowed for the 11th time in 13 starts.

With the market set at -140 across our best sports betting sites, I'm grabbing these -137 odds via Caesars and would play this all the way up to -150. The latter implies a 60% chance that he surrenders two or fewer runs for the seventh consecutive start.
