The New York Yankees were on their longest winning streak of the season and they are now on a three game losing streak as they fell to the Mets on Friday. Alex Rodriguez, Andruw Jones, and Robinson Cano all homered and Mark Teixeira added two hits as the Yankees scored four runs on 11 hits. On the mound Andy Pettitte was hit hard early(ruining my POD) but in all he allowed seven hits and five earned runs while striking out six over six innings for his third loss of the season. For Saturday’s game New York starts Ivan Nova who is pitching his best he has all season allowing less than a run per game over his last three starts. For the season Nova has allowed 95 hits and 41 earned runs while striking out 73 over 85.1 innings of work for a 4.32 ERA. The Mets are 7-0 against the A.L. East, 5-0 in their last five home games, and 7-0 in their last seven interleague games against a team with a winning record. The Yankees are 7-1 in their last eight road games, 13-4 in their last 17 games against a team with a winning record, and 24-6 in Nova’s last 30 starts. The Yankees are 7-2 in the last nine meetings of these two. I expect to see plenty of scoring once again in this one, so the over is a good option too. But, I lay my money on the Yankees ML Yankees ML -150 $150 |
