MLB Premium Play 07/26: Tampa Bay Rays @ New York Yankees

MLB - 919 Tampa Bay Rays @ 920 New York Yankees

(Starting Pitchers: J. Hellickson vs C. Sabathia)

Tampa Bay's offense is currently red hot and they are #1 in the league on hitting versus LH pitchers! In fact, they are hitting .291 BA versus LH pitchers over their last 10 games! They will face C.C. Sabathia, who has been struggling with his mechanics lately. In fact, he had 8.65, 5.30 and 5.27 FIP on his last three outings, very poor numbers! Sabathia's problems are just mechanical, as he has been lacking some speed on his pitches as well and the red hot Rays will take advantage of that tonight.

On the other side, Jeremy Hellickson will start for Tampa Bay and he has been on a roll lately. He had a tough schedule by facing Toronto twice, Detroit and Boston in four of his last six games, but he was excellent in all of these games! He is yet to face the Yankees this season and with the NY team's offense struggling all season long (#26 in the league L14 days), I can only expect Hellickson to have another good start tonight. I believe Tampa Bay will have a SP and offensive edge in here, so I'll be taking them tonight.

Pick: 3 units (Single Dime Play) on 919 Tampa Bay Rays ML (w/ J. Hellickson) @ -105 / 1.95 on 5Dimes
