Bet On MLB Baseball - Spectacular Hurlers Take Mound as Yanks Host Indians
Something has got to give in online
betting action tonight when two of the
best pitchers in the American League,
who are both undefeated in the early
going this season, face off tonight as
the New York Yankees, (17-17, 9-23-1
O/U) host the Cleveland Indians, (15-17,
14-18 O/U) in the second game of their
three-game series tonight.
After correctly
calling Tuesday night’s
contest between these teams in the BetUS
Locker Room by selecting the Indians
to win behind talented starter Fausto
Carmona, which they did, 5-3, I am back
with what should be another winning wager
on tonight’s matchup, though I
will readily admit that tonight’s
cal is infinitely tougher with two spectacular
starters going.
The Yankees
will send their best starter the past
two seasons to the mound in 19-game
winner Chien-Ming Wang, (6-0, 3.00)
looking to bounce back from Tuesday
night’s loss, looking for a performance
similar to the one he delivered on Friday
when he limited the Seattle Mariners
to just one run on three hits in six
innings of New York’s 5-1 win.
"I think
you feel really good when he takes the
mound," Yankees manager
Joe Girardi told the team's official
Web site. "He's won 38 games the
last two years. Obviously, when Chien-Ming
Wang takes the mound, you feel good about
your chances."

While the Yankees are right to feel
good about their chances with Mien-Wang
on the mound, the Cleveland Indians have
every right to feel just as confident
with surprising starter Cliff Lee, (5-0,
0.96 ERA) taking the hill looking to
extend his perfect record by delivering
another spectacular performance, though
he will likely need to be better than
he was in his last start as he allowed
three runs on eight hits including a
home run in six innings as the Indians
beat the Seattle Mariners 8-3 o Wednesday.
Lee may not get nearly as much press
as fellow Indians starter C.C. Sabathia,
the 2007 AL Cy Young award winner or
even 19-game winner Fausto Carmona, but
Lee and his major league-leading 0.96
ERA, take a back seat to no one this
season.
"I'm happy
with how things have gone," said
Lee. "My job is
to give the team a chance to win, and
I feel like I've done that every time
I went out there. We've won - that's
the goal."

Lee earned the American League Pitcher
of the Month award on Saturday as is
the first pitcher to win his first five
starts with an ERA under 1.00 since New
York Mets starter Pedro Martinez pulled
off the feat in 1997.
Here is
a look at tonight’s key
trends followed by my MLB Betting Picks.
The Indians
are 4-0 in Lee’s last
four starts on grass.
The Indians
are 4-0 in Lee’s last
four starts following a Quality Start
in his last appearance.
The Yankees
are 13-3 in Wang’s
last 16 home starts vs. a team with a
losing record.
The Yankees
are 21-5 in Wang’s
last 26 starts vs. American League Central.
The Under
is 4-1 in Lee’s last
five starts overall.
The Over
is 4-1-1 in Wang’s last
six Wednesday starts.
The Over is 5-0-1 in the last six meetings
in New York.
The Under
is 4-1-1 in Wang’s last
six starts vs. Indians.
Analysis:
The more I thought about this pick,
the easier it became for me as I realized
that the Yankees and Mien-Wang will
likely extract some revenge on the
Indians for losing last night, while
touching up Lee, who didn’t look
particularly overpowering in his last
start against the Mariners. Take the
Yankees in a tight one tonight.
