TEAM TIPS
Yankees manager Joe Girardi is familiar with the Marlins and National League baseball having managed the Marlins three years ago. Yankees starting pitcher A.J. Burnett also knows the Marlins well, having spent seven seasons with them. Burnett was brilliant in his last start, tossing seven shutout innings on Sunday while allowing four hits and striking out eight in a 15-0 thrashing of the Mets. The right-hander is 14-6 with a 3.19 ERA in 28 interleague starts. Star shortstop Derek Jeter returned to New York’s lineup on Friday after not starting the previous two games because of a sore ankle. Alex Rodriguez won’t be in the Yankees’ lineup. He’s benched for the second of two games for what the Yankees are calling fatigue. Rodriguez’s is batting just .145 this month and is hitless in his last 15 at bats. The Yankees have won 21 of their last 31 games when favored.
PROJECTED SCORE: 3
Marlins: Josh Johnson has won his past three decisions. The 25-year-old right-hander has a 3.11 ERA in his last five starts, all Florida victories. The Marlins are 11-3 in Johnson’s 14 starts this season. Florida is 22-6 in Johnson’s past 28 starts. Johnson threw a complete-game seven-hitter in his last start on Sunday, beating Toronto on the road, 11-3. It was Johnson’s sixth consecutive quality start. Florida is 9-2 in Johnson’s 11 home starts. This is Johnson’s first start versus the Yankees. The Marlins entered this series with the second-highest team batting average in June at .289. Only the Angels ranked higher. However, two of their key batters are in slumps. Outfielder Jeremy Hermida is hitless in his last 16 at-bats, while cleanup hitter Jorge Cantu has just one homer in his last 39 games. The Marlins are 2-9 in their last 11 games as a home underdog.
I wish I had seen those early plays , Cubs won and Mil/Det total looks fine so far...I will be paying a little more attention to your posts , Thanks for the effort...
I capped NYY/FLA very close to the market line so I guess it will come down to how much the line moves in order for me to grab a little value on either side...BOL with the Marlins play...
You're welcome guys, usually the data service from multiple sportsbooks provide 2 or 3 plays every day from wiseguys, as u must know, they don't win all the time, like everybody else..... but this guys moves lines because they put a lot of money down.
I hope you take advantage of this information.
Good Luck on your picks
