Play on Game #917 Baltimore Orioles/ Gonzalez (7:05 PM EST)

I like the Orioles with Gonzalez on the rubber as he bringsa 2.59 ERA and a 1.15 WHIP into tonight's game. The Orioles are 3 -2 in his 5starts this year with one of those wins coming against the Yankees last month.Gonzo had 10K's/ 1 BB in that game. He is coming off a quality start vs. theRays last week when he went 7.2 scoreless innings scattering 4 hits whilestriking out 6 and walking only 1. For the season, Gonzo is holding opponentsto a .143 BA with runners in scoring position. Current members of the Yankeesroster are only hitting .204 vs. Gonzo and he has a 24K/ 6 BB mark vs. them. Inhis last 5 starts vs. the Yankees, Gonzo has a 25K/ 4BB mark and we definitelyhave the better pitcher tonight as an underdog.

For the Yankees, they will have Warren on the rubber who hasstruggles vs. the Orioles. Adam Jones is 3-for-6 vs. him, Davis 2-for-4, Hardy3-for-5, and Machado 3-for-4. Warren has a 12K/ 8 BB mark in 5 starts so thisguy is not a strikeout pitcher. He is more of a contact pitcher and that is nota good thing vs. these Orioles bats. Opposing hitters are hitting .273 vs.Warren with runners in scoring position and guys are really getting a hold ofhim in the middle innings after seeing his stuff the first go around.

The Orioles have been in a bit of a funk lately, but this isa good game for them to bounce out of it vs. a pitcher they have had successagainst. After dropping last night's game, I think they even this 4 game seriesup at 1-1. Let's take the Orioles tonight as a small underdog.
