New York Yankees (Phil Hughes +121 2** FREE PLAY) Phil
Hughes gets a bad image because of the media in New York, but he
continues to perform on the road posting a 3.44 ERA this season. He's
been excellent over his last three starts with a 0.98 WHIP and a 2.95
ERA. He's been flat out dominant in his career in Oakland with a 0.60
WHIP, a 4:1 K to BB ratio and a 1.80 ERA. Oakland hitters have just a
.537 OPS against him in 88 career AB and he's backed by a Yankees
bullpen that has been dominant on the road with a 2.71 ERA which is
better than the A's home bullpen ERA. Oakland also struggles more
against RHP as they are only scoring 3.79 runs per 9 at home with a .210
average compared to over 5 vs. LHP. Home runs have been one of the
stats that have hurt Hughes in his career because he's a fly ball
pitcher at Yankee Stadium, but pitching in a spacious ball park he can
really let loose and I think that's part of the reason he's pitched well
here and will continue to do so on Wednesday.
On
the flip side Dan Straily has struggled in his career at home for some
reason with a 5.14 ERA this year and a 5.95 ERA last year. The Yankees
got to him in their only appearance against while Robinson Cano is 2-3
against him. The Yankees are 35-17 in their last 52 meetings with the
A's and Hughes is 9-4 on 5 days rest.
