Out of cc sabathias last 21 starts he want 6.2 innings or more 19 times(not including his injured marlins game).. I like my chances of him going 7 or more tonight.. Mariners jus played 14 inning game. One of their two best hitters is Branyan.. I was at the game vs seattle in bronx and he owned branyan. He struck out everytime bad.. Beltre, their best righty is not playing as well..
Snell got shell shock w the big crowd.. What is he gonna do when the almighty yankees come into town? The best hitting lineup in the league..
Ian Snell on the other hand has went more than 6.0 innings once out of his last 12 starts.. Where are the innings coming from in the 7th and 8th? Their best relief guy beside Ardasma is Lowe who is def not pitching tonight..
Snell tends to have control problems and arent the yanks one of the best teams at drawing walks and making pitchers work? Snells pitch count will be very high early and i would love to know where the innings come from..
Yanks used most of their bullpen? Hughes threw 16 pitches. Coke who will def be used for Ichiro and Branyan threw 3 pitches. Rivera didnt pitch. Acceves their rock solid 7th inning did not pitch. Bruney did not pitch.. So 4/5 best relief guys didnt pitch. And hughes threw 16 pitches.. Im sure he will come in the 8th to close the door and pick up a game on the Sox if needed..
I honestly see like 5 automatic outs from Mariners
Josh Wilson Branyan Sweeney Saunders Harahan..
I understand some of uz think Sabathia's gonna shit the bed.. But if snell does which is more likely, the hitting and pen favors yanks..
