MLB Premium Play 07/03: New York Yankees @ Minnesota Twins

MLB - 971 New York Yankees @ 972 Minnesota Twins

(Starting Pitchers: C. Sabathia vs P. Walters)

Minnesota is starting P.J. Walters tonight and he is one of the worst starting pitchers in the league. Walters allowed 16 earned runs on his last three games (a combined of nine innings). The Yankees' offense was struggling, but they scored 10 and 7 runs on the first two games of this series, so they have woken up. Now against the terrible Walters, I expect the NY team to be able to pound him tonight.

The Yankees are C.C. Sabathia tonight and he is coming from four runs allowed on a loss at Baltimore last Friday. Sabathia has been struggling lately, but he had top offensive teams in all his last six starts! He started the season with a lot of problems, including a clear loss of speed on his fastball, something that he has been correcting lately. I believe Sabathia is being underrated and the reason for his struggles was his tough opposition. Now against the Twins, I expect him to bounce back. As Walters will struggle again, I believe the Yankees will pick up an easy win tonight.

Pick: 3 units (Single Dime Play) on 971 New York Yankees RL -1 (w/ C. Sabathia) @ -135 / 1.71 on 5Dimes
