PAY-AFTER-YOU-WIN - 500* - NY Yankees RUN LINE (Sabathia over Snell)
Well, it took the Yanks extra-innings on Thursday afternoon to defeat the Blue Jays, and of course they had to fly to the other end of the country, but I have to believe it is a whole lot easier to fly to the pacific northwest when you have won 9 of your last 10 games, and you lead your division comfortably.
Sure, it may take a few innings for New York to get their bearings, but when they do, they will rout this Seattle team.
Ian Snell is all kinds of messed up, as going from Pittsburgh to the Emerald City has not be the "change" the M's were looking for, as Snell has allowed 5 runs, and 5 hits in his 7-plus innings of work for his new club, but worse still is his 9 walks allowed in that span! Against a patient team like the Yankees, that spells doom.
CC Sabathia loves him the month of August, and last start against Boston was a dominating one, as the portly southpaw allowed just 2 hits, and no earned runs in nearly 8 frames, while fanning 9.
The Yankees will get the train rolling around the 5th inning, as this one has 9-2 final written all over it.
Take New York on the RUN LINE.
