List both Buehrle & Sabathia as starting pitchers or this play is void
Take the White Sox as they earn the four game sweep of the Yankees.
Having won the last three games by a whopping 27-11 I now expect for the White Sox to continue hot hand as they finish off the Yankees with another easy win today. Helping pave the way will be Buehrle who returns to the same mound where he tossed a perfect game in his last home start and where the lefty is 15-1 with an ERA of 2.32 over his last 21 home starts.
Now countering for the Yankees will be Sabathia who let’s face it has not lived up to his lofty contract this season due to his 10-7 record this year and a mark that won’t get any better due to CC’s current struggles verse Chicago going 0-1 mark and a 4.28 ERA in his last four outings.
Simple, given the way Chicago has dominated the first three games of this series and now throw the hottest pitcher in the game I more than expect for the White Sox to earn the four game sweep of the Evil Empire.
Take the Rockies as the sweep the three game series against the Reds today.
Yet another easy win over the Reds last night it’s Colorado who thanks to winning 9 of the last 10 meetings has dominated Cincinnati over the past two years. Well thanks to the pitching of Marquis and the fact that Cincinnati is in a serious free fall I love for the Rockies to continue their dominance today.
Now helping the Rockies will be twelve game winner Jason Marquis who has been amazing this year going 12-7 with an ERA of 3.47 on the season and an even lower ERA of 2.70 over his last three games.
Well thanks to the Reds having now lost 11 of their last 12 games look for Marquis to get his 13th win of the season and do so in dominating fashion.
Jake Timlin 8/2
