MLB Premium Play 08/09: Detroit Tigers @ New York Yankees

MLB - 921 Detroit Tigers @ 922 New York Yankees

(Starting Pitchers: R. Porcello vs I. Nova)

The Yankees will start Ivan Nova tonight and he has been amazing lately, with 0, 1, 3, 1 and 2 earned runs allowed, while throwing some perfect groundballs, something very important while facing Detroit. Nova had 5 days of rest prior to this game and he threw just 86 pitches on his last start. Therefore, I believe he will be able to have a nice outing tonight against the Tigers.

Detroit will start Rick Porcello tonight and he has been clearly weaker against LH batters this season. The Tigers won't have Alex Avila on the lineup tonight, with Bryan Pena getting the start on his place. The Tigers won't have the starting 2B or the starting catcher tonight on the lineup, José Iglesias is new on the team, while Miguel Cabrera and Prince Fielder are poor defenders, so Detroit will be prone to some lousy defense tonight. Porcello has been allowing .303 BA, .342 wOBA and 3.96 FIP versus LH batters this season and therefore, the Yankees will present the following lineup tonight:

1. Brett Gardner (L) CF
2. Ichiro Suzuki (L) RF
3. Robinson Cano (L) 2B
4. Alfonso Soriano (R) DH
5. Alex Rodriguez (R) 3B
6. Curtis Granderson (L) LF
7. Lyle Overbay (L) 1B
8. Eduardo Nunez (R) SS
9. Chris Stewart (R) C

I believe the Yankees have a great spot for a big win tonight and so, I'll be taking them in here.

Pick: 3 units (Single Dime Play) on 922 New York Yankees ML (w/ I. Nova) @ +100 / 2.00 on Bovada
