The New York Yankees are the hottest team in baseball and tonight they will take their game to PNC Park to face the Pittsburgh Pirates. CC Sabathia will get the call for the Bombers and the southpaw has been spectacular. Sabathia is 2-0, with an ERA of 1.47, and 1.04 WHIP in 18.1 innings of work. CC has a career record of 4-0, with a 1.23 ERA against the Bucs, and the Yanks are 4-0 in his last 4 starts. Tyler Glasnow will take the hill for Pittsburgh and he is off to a dismal start. Glasnow is 0-1, with a bloated ERA of 12.15, and WHIP of 2.55 in just 6.2 innings of work. Pittsburgh will be without their star outfielder, Starling Marte, due to an 80-game suspension for PEDs. The Bucs are 0-4 in their last 4 interleague games and 1-4 in their last 5 interleague games against lefties. The Yanks are hot and I’ll stick with them until they’re not.
Tonight’s pick:
